Message Waiting
There are two indicators for a new message waiting: 1) the voicemail
icon; and 2) an intermittent dial tone.
The voicemail icon
on your Wireless Home Phone flashes when
a voicemail message is waiting. You will also hear an intermittent dial
tone on any connected phone handset before placing a call.
Retrieving Messages
To retrieve voice messages, dial 1 on any home phone connected
to the Wireless Home Phone device and wait four (4) seconds to
connect to your AT&T wireless voicemail box. Simply follow the
voice prompts to listen to and manage your messages. (Alternately,
you may dial your 10-digit home phone number to access your
voicemail box.)
Remote Retrieval
To retrieve voicemail messages from a phone not connected to the
Wireless Home Phone device, dial the number associated with your
Wireless Home Phone service. When voicemail picks up, press *.
You will then be prompted to enter your password. Simply follow the
prompts to listen to and manage your voicemail messages.
Transferring a Phone Number
Transferring a landline phone number to your Wireless Home
Phone can take five (5) days or more. Outgoing calls can be made
immediately using your Wireless Home Phone, however incoming
calls will continue through your old service until the transfer is
complete. It is recommended that a phone be kept connected
to your existing home wiring or prior service to continue to receive
incoming calls until the transfer is complete. To check the status of
your transfer, visit www.att.com/port.
