Product Review

Now you can order Caller ID from your telephone service provider, without having to run out and buy a new phone. Simply plug in this compact unit between your phone and the wall plug, order the service, and you'll be good to go!

Amazon.com Product Review

With a flat design equally at home on your wall or desktop, the AT&T 436 Caller ID Box provides three lines of information on its LCD. The 90-entry name and number log coordinates with the one-touch dial for instant return of important calls, and each incoming message automatically receives a time-date stamp. A call-waiting button lets you know the identity of new callers when you're already on the line. Names can be displayed in Spanish or English. The manufacturer includes a one-year warranty on parts and service.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not compatible with DSL, June 18, 2004

This review is from: AT&T 436 Caller ID Box (Dove Gray) (Office Product)
I like the features of this unit and would like it even better if it had all of features some other reviewers listed, like call sorting and adjustable LCD. Mine has neither of these features. But my real complaint is that when my DSL modem is plugged into the wall, my Caller Display 436 will not work. It works fine as long as the DSL is not plugged in. My phones with caller ID display work at all times. I like the fact that this unit came with a power supply rather than batteries. It would be nice to have a back up battery in case of power failute and a larger display would also be nice. Is anyone aware of other units which have no problem with the DSL line?

1.0 out of 5 stars Can't See its Offspring, December 22, 2003

This review is from: AT&T 436 Caller ID Box (Dove Gray) (Office Product)
I recently purchased the AT&T 436 and it displays call made from land lines as it should. But calls made from AT&T wireless phones don't register, instead it displays "error present" or "line error". Strange, my other caller ID devices, including an AT&T wall phone, Bell South caller ID box and a Panasonic wireless phone all display both cell and land line numbers. What's even more interesting is this AT&T caller ID box is specifically rejecting calls from it's own AT&T family. Go figure! I returned it for a full refund.

1.0 out of 5 stars Piece of Junk, May 11, 2004

This review is from: AT&T 436 Caller ID Box (Dove Gray) (Office Product)
This is supposed to display the caller information, and store up to 100 calls in memory. The display of the current call works, but after getting several calls in memory the characters change to display complete gibberish when looking back at the history. If you have a use for the call history, don't buy it because it doesn't work.
