Do people like the Toshiba cordless phones? If so, what model?

The customers I have do like them and the moel would depend on the ranfe you need. The DKT2304 is the narrow spectrum and the DKT2204 is the spread spectrum.

I agree with Amy, it depends on the customer specs, but I have seen an equal amount of both installed.

Cordless digital 900MHz spread spectrum



Cordless digital 900 MHz narrow band



The only issue that I've dealt with is the customer buying a cheap aftermarket headset and having static... but that is headset related and not Toshiba cordless phone related, so if they want a headset, get quality.

My understanding is that the cordless phones come with 4 programmable buttons. Does anyone have suggestions on what to put on each button? I assume the first should be intercom.

Totally depends on the customers needs, but usually INT, line 1, line 2, line 3, for a small office with appearing lines. For a larger business, we might do INT, VM-TRNS, ALL PAGE, CF.

Is it used as a Stand alone or piggybacked from another station?

Stand Alone: you can program the three button how you want them with the first being INT

PiggyBack: the 4 buttons are the first 4 of the original station.

My new DKT 2304 phone works great. Is there any way to get the caller-id number to appear? Only the caller-id name appears. I get both when I use a regular Toshiba phone.

Have the provider reverse the order they are sent.

If not, I think I recall being able to press a button while the call is ringing to display the next line of ID... maybe not, memory isn't working this late.

Is it really true that I could have Verizon send the caller-id number before the name? I just assumed it would be a setting in my CTX 100 system.

I think we had a simular complaint froma customer. Another tech tried for several minutes but only could not get both to display. I can't rememebr which it showed, or if he could switch it. I have not personally heard of a phone company switching name/number on CLID.
