    For those that have working caller ID with a 942, how many devices do you have on your line?? Including phones, modems, satellite boxes, etc.

    I have:
    2 Dish Boxes - 942 and 322
    1 TiVo
    5 telephones (3 with caller ID)
    1 DSL Modem

    Caller ID works great every time.

    1 phone w/o caller ID
    1 56k modem (rarely ever used - only when the cable modem goes out)
    1 942 receiver.

    Caller ID comes up on the 2nd ring every time.

    After further testing, i.e. removing all devices from the phone line except the 942 it still didn't work. In fact I let it ring forever and it never kicked in. I think there is just a problem with this 942.

    Verizon DSL line connections

    2 - 942s
    1 - DSL Modem
    2 - wireless phones
    3 - wired phones

    942s Caller ID did not work at first. Now works on 2nd ring. Use 2 DSL filters in series for 942s

    We have had two 522's, and the caller ID feature has never worked on either, even when we connect to the incoming phone line at the demarc box on the outside of the house. Three phones with caller ID have always worked OK. I guess we don't miss what we never had.

    I have SBC phone service and DSL with them.

    4- wireless phones (three have Caller ID)
    1- Printer/fax modem
    1- DSL modem
    1- 625 receiver

    Caller ID usually works for me, but at first it wouldn't work if I was recording something or if I had a timer set. It works about 80% of the time for me...and I love the feature.

    With the release of L283 my Caller ID still does not work. It worked great with L229. I noticed I had an new entry in the ID history that came in when I was putting in our new phone/answering machine, line was hooked up to the 942 but not to the phone yet. I wonder if the line's have to much of a pull on them or what. All thats on the line is the phone/answering machine combo, 942, a wireless phone with caller id, and a dialup modem. I would love for this feature to work, it did on our 311 and it was a great feature.
