receiver to an active telephone line.
Or, the telephone line may be
defective.
Maybe the receiver is connected to a
DSL (Digital Subscriber Line)
phone line.

is working properly.

the receiver connected to an active telephone line at all times. If
your setup includes more than one receiver, this applies to each
receiver. The receiver uses the telephone line to make toll-free

wall jack.
