Re: Getting Earthlink Line Powered Voice on 2/3

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.

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.
