It's exactly like sentrex1 said. Now I think I got what I want and feel much relieved. It's not intentional. Thank you indeed for all of you. I think I can be very happy to be off now. Bye bye.

If anyone feel my language make him uncomfortable, I'm very sorry. But, seemingly it's understandable except for Hal.

Bihl, sorry if I offended you. I realize not everybody reads and writes English perfectly so you didn't make me uncomfortable. I was just trying to understand your problem exactly and by rewriting what you said I had hoped you would correct what I misunderstood.

No problem, Hal.

I have only one line with two phones, one wired, one cordless. The wired is plugged in.

Both phones should ring when calls in, but very often only the cordless rings and cranky in many ways like said already. Hoping this time I don't confuse you even more.

Same frequency interference or getting wet makes sense to me, even I don't know exactly how. I feel good about these explanations.

I forgot to mention one thing why I feel stalking.
It happened twice, so not a big deal.

My friend called me, but answered by a stranger (not machine). At the same time, she heard me talking in a conversation, not my answer m/c message. Funny thing is during that time, I was home, alone, and the phone never rang. 100% sure, it's not cross line. To me, it's more like a recording is relayed.

I can't stop now. One more thing, my answer machine will get @#$%%$_|+, fortunately not dirty stuff, so I turn it off for a year already.

Is that some story, or just very common.

You have a modem hooked up to the line also? It almost sound like the modem is set to auto answer.
I would see if you can borrow a cordless phone from someone, or just buy a cheap one and see if it continues.

Yes, my modem hooked up to the same line. It could be set to take up incoming calls, so I can stop internet and answer the phone. Meanwhile I did not use this service.

If only the cordless rings and not the hard wired phone I would say you have a neighbor with a cordless on the same freq. range. Try another cordless.

Long post so I may have read over this and missed it.

The first question is do you have caller ID on the cordless phone and not on the cored phone?

The reason behind it is, the caller ID gets sent down between the first and second ring. If the cordless phone has caller ID, it may absorb the first ring so it will have the caller ID ready when it starts to ring.

JUST A THOUGHT.

I don't have caller ID at all.
