Re: Howto enable Line2 on a Nokia 6310i ?

That depends on what you choose. I've never used line 2 so I've never
bothered to find out which handsets support it, but I'd expect most
Orange handsets to have it.

Totally agree. I still have two of them, excellent phones.

And I'll bid a tenner :-)

Interesting. My 6310i supports two lines just fine.

Got two myself (third one finally gave up the ghost unfortunately).

You can bloody well knock that off! ;-)

They do. Orange handsets have it enabled by default as they are the only
UK network to support it. Phones originating on other networks won't.

Which if you think about it makes sense. If you enable Line 2 on a phone
operating on a network that doesn't support it, you will still be able to
switch "lines" but when you are on the non-existent Line 2 you won't be
able to make calls.

It will do if it is or was on Orange. As they are the only UK network to
support Line 2 they are the only ones who enable it on their handsets.

Ignore him. He is just being an arse.

Hi Chaps,

I've decided to try to get hold of an M/F Bus cable so I can use Maestro's Fbus
application to set up line 2 but am having trouble finding one. Can anyone tell
me whether the DLR 3P cable at eg eBay item number 260197379286 is an M Bus
cable or an M/F Bus cable ? Alternatively, does anyone know where I can get an
M/F Bus cable in the UK at a reasonable price ?

Many thanks,

Boo
