Recently bought house. Phone jacks in almost every room.
Ordered new connection from Verizon. Works only in one room.
They say previous owners had atleast 3 lines. They had it wired that
way.
Asking for 95 for first line, and about 50 for each additional line to
rewire!!!!

Anybody else encountered this before?
Any solution / work around except wiring myself from inside using one-
to-many jacks
available in stores?

Thanks.

How about one of those 4-handset wireless phones. Plug the base into
the desired wall outlet and spread the other three handsets wherever.

Do Not Buy This Phone Set!!

Seriously - It's haunted or something. I bought that exact set at
BJ's. I put the answering machine in the kitchen, a charger/handset in
my bedroom and a charger/handset in each of the teenager's rooms.

Within hours, all 4 handsets ended up in the teenager's rooms.
Sometimes all 4 handsets end up in one room. I'll go collect them,
put them back in their chargers, and within hours all 4 handsets end
up in the teenager's room, sometimes all 4 handsets in one room. It
never stops. I swear it happens even when the teenagers aren't home.

It must be the handsets.

Put hidden cameras in the teenagers' rooms and post the videos. Some
people would like to see those walking handsets.
