Frequently Asked Questions
What kind of phone do I need to work with the U.S. Cellular
®
Home
Phone?
Most standard touch-tone phones may be used. Rotary phones are
not supported. Cordless phone systems provide the most flexibility and
allow you to easily place additional handsets throughout your home.
Cordless phone systems still need to be plugged into a power outlet.
During a power outage, a standard corded phone which doesn’t require
electrical power is recommended.
How do I install my U.S. Cellular Home Phone?
Please see page 7 in this Quick Start Guide for the most common
installation methods. Other helpful information:
•
Installation near a window or outside wall is strongly recommended
to ensure the strongest possible wireless signal in order to
maximize voice quality.
•
If the U.S. Cellular Home Phone signal strength indicator does
not display high signal strength (Green) or voice quality is
unacceptable, you may need to relocate the device to another part
of the home with a stronger wireless signal.
Will my U.S. Cellular Home Phone work in areas with no or low
wireless signal strength?
A strong wireless signal (Green) is recommended for optimal
performance. A moderate signal (Yellow) may be sufficient. If you do
not see a green light, you may want to choose an alternate location.
