I had Full Fibre installed today but didn't receive a Digital Voice Adapter. How do I get one please ?

Apologies for this.

Please can you add your name and TalkTalk account number to your Community Profile, I can then send you a digital voice adapter.

Thanks

I have added my phone number and my account number to my profile. (Couldn't see where to put account number so put it in Private Notes)

Hi @FourBells

Thanks for updating your Community Profile.

I've checked and we are just waiting for the account to update to show FTTP is live, I can then order the DVA.

I will keep checking on this and I will let you know once the digital voice adapter has been ordered.

I now understand that I need a Digital Voice Adapter for each phone in the house. I have three in total, therefore is it possible to have an extra 2 sent please ?

Many thanks,

Heather

Morning @FourBells

As the DVA connects to the router you only need one digital voice adapter.

@FourBells you'll only be able to connect one handset or base station to the DVA.

If your other phone extensions are hard wired extensions then these will no longer work.

If you need phones in others rooms then wireless handsets will need to be purchased.

So, the DVA arrived and it doesn't give me anything extra because it needs plugging into the router, but my router is a version 2 with a phone port in it already.

BT supplies DVAs that connect wirelessly to the router, so they connect to a phone wherever it is in the house, so I am either going to have to spend £100 on a 4-pack wireless phone system or move my account to BT.

Oops, looks like you didn't read the setup instructions for digital voice and the Type 2 Hub!

From what I can see BT only provide one for free although you can have up to 5 connected and they are £19.99 each.

Good afternoon,

Can I just confirm, did you receive a Wifi Hub 2 and not an eero?

Yes, it's a wifi hub2

Hello,

Thanks for confirming. I'm not sure why the DVA was sent out. Does the phone work ok at the voice port on this router? Unfortunately we don't provide additional equipment to connect additional handsets around the property.

Thanks

Michelle

Re: Digital Voice Adapter

FourBells — Mon, 18 Nov 2024 13:52:07 GMT

Yes, the phone works OK.

Hi,

I'm glad to hear this. Would you like us to send a returns bag for the digital voice adapter as this can't be used with the WIFI HUB 2 router? If you have cordless phones connected to a main base station then this would work if the main phone is connected to the router.

Thanks

Michelle

Yes, might as well send a returns bag for the DVA.
