    I was wondering if there is a way to change how many times your phone rings before the answering machine picks up.

    Thanks.

    The feature should be called DTMF. It is usually located under the phone settings menu.

    i dont have this option
    i have a v551

    i remember with fido i used to be able to dial a number like:

    *61*(my voicemail number)**(any mutiple of 5; this would be the number of seconds before the machine picks up)#

    but this doesnt work anymore

    I have Cingular V551 that I looked at to see if it have the DTMF feature, and it did. It should be under the Initial Setup, if it isn't then I think Fido might have disabled that option. If so then you will need to give a call to Fido and ask them.

    ok i found it, and it has three options
    short
    long
    off

    i have tried all of these
    the difference between the short and long is 1 ring
    and off is no different than short

    are you aware of any other ways to extend the number of rings?
