It doesn't seem to limit this. I've had 3 handsets active on a single call before.

Yes, more than one person can talk on the phone at a time. No transferring necessary.

Up to how many handset can talk at the same time?...We have 2 sons and they both love to join in the conversation with their grandmother in Florida every time we're on the phone.

YES YOU CAN. (You can confirm this in the user manual by using Google search for "AT&T; TL88102 manual", and see page 12.) NEARLY unbelieveable flexible features include using "settings" to set the volume level on each handset for both lines separately. You can set the volume to "off" on one or both lines and the handset won't ring for the line just on that handset. Also: the voice quality on this system is fantastically good.

Yes, you can do a kind of conference call with multiple people in the home on the same phone call. What you cannot do is call 2 different numbers at the same time because it is all hooked into 1 phone number.

Yes but not simultaneously (obviously). Say your speaking to someone on a land line call and someone else calls in on the cell line, you can't just "flash" over to the new call, you have to put the first caller on "Hold" (there's a button for that) then answer the cell call. Then if you want to switch back over to the land line call you will have to put the cell call on "Hold" the switch back over to the land line call. It's not difficult, you just have to remember that you can't flash back and forth between callers. You need to remember to use the "Hold" button otherwise you will hang up on one of your callers. Hope this helps.

Why would you need to change phone numbers?. The 3 handset phone that's in question are not a good choice of phones. They function poorley. No need to change your phone number or purchase the AT

Yes, buy them from ebay or elsewhere.You may need to search internet for instructions to register more handset though.The maximum for number of handsets is limited to six.

You can connect up to four cell phones via Bluetooth to the system. Only two cell phones can be connected to the system at any one time. You can designate two cell phones to be "active". That means when those cell phones come in range of the base they will automatically connect to the base. As far as making and receiving calls, if either of the active phones ring, the handsets will ring and you can pick up any phone in the house. If you are placing a call, the cell phones will be displayed on the handset and you choose which cell phone number to use.

Following is the reply I received from Linksys/Cisco when I wrote to them with this question:"Yes, you can expand it up to four handsets. However, this device is NOT sold separately from the base station. Additionally, there are no plans to sell them separately. "You can have multiple handsets but they can be used under just one Skype account."

When you have a call on one handset, all anyone has to do to join the conversation is just pick up any other handset and hit the talk button. Then they can hear and talk to everyone else in the conversation. It's that simple.

Yes you can use all 4 lines as long as u have 4 lines of service service u can conference call all 4 lines from the handsets as well and u can page and talk to any handset or base

I tested this out via my 2-line system...i.e. I called my 2nd line from the 1st line as well as using the base unit's speaker phone...and we could both talk at the same time w/o any loss of communication. Perhaps communicating with other speakerphone brands the results may be different but via my Panasonic units we have no problem.

Supposedly multiple calls can be handled. However, I have not had success in doing so. I have an iPhone that is finicky at best. Every time I try to hang up one call to return to another it hangs up both. Headset or phone? I don,t know.

Yes you can use two pendants or more on the same phone. See Instructions on how to register each pendant with the phone base unit.

Yes you can pair this to two phones. I carry two for work and it is paired to both. I can use it for either phone. But two calls at once can screw it all up..... so you may have to decline a call if your 2nd phone rings while you are on the first one then call them back.

When you have the base paired with one or two cell phones through blue tooth, and connected to a land line, you can answer a call or make another call while on any other phone without putting any call on hold. The only restriction is you must use a different handset. So you can actually or virtually use multi lines at the same time.

If you get one that is not defected meaning both sim slots work Yes both will work at the same time meaning you will have two sim cards in the phone at the same time but different numbers. You can receive calls and make calls from both you only switch from sim1 to sim2 each time you want to make calls its your choice now depending on what number you want to call from. It is very easy and nice if both sim cards are working but one of mine didn't work.
