    Why can't I set up Call Forward All on my Cisco 7962?
    • K
      Katherine PorterAug 16, 2025

    Why can't I hear a dial tone on my Cisco 7962 IP Phone?
    • J
      John PayneAug 19, 2025
      There are several reasons why you might not hear a dial tone or be able to complete a call on your Cisco IP Phone: * You might not be connected to the Extension Mobility service. If this is the case, log into the Extension Mobility service. * The system might require a Client Matter Code (CMC) or Forced Authorization Code (FAC) after dialing a number (SCCP phones only). If so, enter the required code after dialing. * Your phone might have time-of-day restrictions. If this is the case, change the time-of-day restrictions that prevent you from using some features during certain hours.

    • K
      kwilliamsAug 22, 2025
      If a softkey you need isn't showing on your Cisco IP Phone, it could be due to a few reasons: * There might be more softkeys available than currently displayed. Press the More button to see additional options. * The available softkeys depend on the current line state. Try changing the line state, such as going off-hook or having a call connected. * It's possible your phone isn't configured to support the feature associated with the softkey. In this case, contact your system administrator to request access to the feature.
