I get noise, static, or weak signals on my cordless handset
even when I’m near the console.

If you subscribe to high-speed Internet service (DSL - digital
subscriber line) through your telephone lines, you must install a
DSL filter between each telephone line cord and telephone wall
jack. The filter prevents noise and caller ID problems as a result
of DSL interference. Please contact your DSL service provider
for more information about DSL filters.

You may be able to improve the performance by installing your
console as far as possible from any other existing corded or
cordless telephone system that may already be installed.
•
Other electronic products such as HAM radios and other DECT
phones can cause interference with your cordless phone. Try
installing your phone as far away as possible from these types
of electronic devices.

Do not install this handset near a microwave oven or on
the same electrical outlet. You might experience decreased
performance while the microwave oven is operating.
