Mar 29, 2017 3 0 4,510 I'm not sure if this issue is a network issue but I didn't know what category it technically fits in. I am having an issue where whenever I am talking to someone online they say that they hear a beep sound periodically. I cannot hear this beep, it doesn't seem to matter what program or device I am using.

Hopefully the beeps are frequent enough to make a quick determination. If so, plug in the base station again. If the beeps reoccur then power off each remote handset one by to determine if the beeps end with one particular... Sort by date Sort by votes

I believe we have the xFi Advanced Gateway. As far as our telephone set, we have a base station with 3 wireless handsets. But I'll try what you suggested, thanks. Upvote 0 Downvote You must log in or register to reply here. Share: Facebook X Bluesky LinkedIn Reddit Tumblr WhatsApp Email Share Link
