I haven't run into that before. But no, the only way that I know of is to turn down the volume on the individual phones.

If you decide to keep Premier service, then you can keep the second number. Otherwise it will go away when Premier expires, i believe.

When did your port complete? And did you have your landline integrated? The only reason I ask, is that seems like it might be a common thread to the others that had the issue.

My DLS is standalone since the port. I cancelled the landline. The port was last week in Wednesday.

Sorry - you had the port date in your original post :)

That is strange ... I see a few other posts with similar circumstances ... usually just after a port.

Just searching through the forums, I see a couple of theories ... one is that callers from the company that you ported from will experience this until you are fully out of their system. They other theory seems to be restricted calls. Neither may be the same in your case since it is your wife's work and cell phone.

Have you tried your wife's cell after you power cycled?

No, everyone in the house is asleep. I have to wait for another day. Some of her calls come through fine. FYI, I just got an email yesterday from Qwest saying they assigned another number to my DLS. Maybe that was the end of the port process.

Sounds good ... hopefully, it's self correcting.

Keep an eye on it and also check the call logs to see if you can pinpoint which numbers (if there is anything in common) that it's happening with.

If you have Premier service, it will stay on your account at no additional charge.
If you don't have Premier service, it will go away when the Premier trial ends,

We still have the same issue going on when our phone is called from my wife's work number. Her number has caller ID blocking so it shows up as "unknown" and some times it rings for 2 seconds then disconnects the call. I have not had this issue except for from her work or cell phone.

Any advise would be greatly appreciated.

Do you have anonymous call blocking enabled in your my.ooma account?
If you do, it's working as designed.
