BEFORE YOU CALL Try to locate the problem before you call MTCO.

1. Unplug all telephones , (and other devices) from your telephone line jacks . Reinstall the equipment one piece at a time to determine which piece is creating the problem. If your phone equipment is the problem, contact the manufacturer or the store where you bought it. 2. Plug in a single line phone directly into the modular jack that’s enclosed in the network interface device that is installed on the outside of your home. By plugging into this modular jack, you will remove any problems that could be caused from the internal wiring in your house. If the trouble is in the premise wiring or jacks, MTCO will repair it if you cannot, but you will pay for the repair unless you have an MTCO “Home Guard Line Minder” Plan.
