Re: Getting Earthlink Line Powered Voice on 2/3

said by jcricket See Profile :

I no longer get visual voicemail notification on the phones and there is no "stutter tone". Earthlink has said they don't support the stutter tone, although perhaps it's just a "bug" right now.
There are two different ways the phone company can send a message waiting signal, stutter tone or FSK. Some phones work with either type of signals other phones only work with one or the other. You may want to try a phone that supports FSK message waiting indication. FSK is really a better method because with stutter tone the phone has periodically "pick up the phone line" to check for the stutter tone.

Is there any way to tell which phones support FSK notification? I've got a VTech cordless phone system (the 5831), which worked fine with my phone company voicemail.

This isn't the most critical issue. The fax and alarm system are more disturbing to me.
