Repairs/Troubleshooting - Student Phones


All telephone and voicemail repair calls should be directed to the Telecommunications Help Desk at X2337.

When reporting a trouble call, please be sure to have the following information available:

  • Extension number
  • Building and room number
  • Telephone jack number (found at wall jack where phone is plugged in)
  • Complete description of trouble
  • Name of contact and extension where you can be reached


BEFORE REPORTING A TROUBLE, PLEASE CHECK THE FOLLOWING: 

  • If you have no dial tone or static on all calls, make sure all connections are secure, including the line cord into the jack and the handset cord into the telephone.
  • Have you recently put in a request for change.  If so, the work may not be complete.
  • If you have trouble making outside calls, check your dialing instructions.  Identify if you are having a problem on all long distance or just one number.  Be sure to provide the complete number and any recording information you hear.
  • If you are experiencing trouble on all long distance outgoing calls, the trouble may be with your personal billing number.  Call PAETEC at 1 800 962-4772.
  • If you receive a message in voice mail that goes on forever, press 3 3 7 to delete.
  • With our voice mail system, if you send a message or delete a message we cannot retrieve it.  So be sure before you press the command to send or delete.
