The unit comes with an RJ11 phone cable. Only the two centre pins are
connected. This seems fine with DECT phones but there might be a
problem with older fixed phones.

To check if the phone can talk to the ATA, what happens if you enter *
(star) three times, as per the manual? Do you get the voice prompts?

If not, that needs fixing first.
