## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can I use a cordless phone and this telephone on the same line.  We have VOIP.   I need a captioning telephone but others woudl prefer cordless.**
A: I have a cordless hooked up I n my kitchen and my captel phone is hooked up in my living roombc I do have hearing people in my home all u need is a double outlet phone jack bc where my captel is hooked up at also has the tTV phone line there also but be aware that your captel phone says it's wifi but it doesn't work so u have to have your captel near your router I hope this answers your question I absolutely love my phone and I don't know what i would do with out it.. i also have a vco phone and hated it bc u had to go through someone else to talk to people so this captel phone u don't have it captions your calls automatically. .

**Q: & Do you need separate Phone Jack for this phone? Also we have 2 hand phones with brand name at&t. Have roadrunner with Time Warner.
Any conflict of interest?**
A: That (who provides internet) shouldn't matter. Description says you need phone and internet.

**Q: Does this phone work with cable TV,home phone and Internet services?**
A: Yes it does.  You have to connect the phone to your regular phone line, a power supply (home 115v) and to the internet using either an Ethernet cable or wireless connection.  I use the Ethernet cable connection because my phone is close to my router.  The phone works great but you have to understand that the close captioning comes in over the internet so it will lag behind.  If you are speaking to someone who talks fast it can lag behind quite a ways and you have to tell them to be patient while the captioning catches up.  I love the phone.

**Q: How much does Captel charge a month?**
A: captioning services for the deaf are free and paid for byt the federal government (our taxes)....Captel should not be charging you for any captioning services as I understand it.
