How It Works
The AT&T Home Base uses the AT&T cellular network to provide phone service to your cordless and corded home phone(s) and Internet access to your computer and Wi-Fi enabled devices. Place it anywhere in your home where you have a strong wireless signal. It does not require the use of a home phone wall jack like traditional home phone service.
The AT&T Home Base provides many calling services, such as voicemail, Caller Number ID, Call Waiting, Call Forwarding, and 3-way Calling for your home phone(s). It also includes a back-up battery in case of a power outage.
Device Installation
Before You Begin
The AT&T Home Base works exclusively with the AT&T
cellular network and DOES NOT use your home phone wall jacks.
Your device should be located:
•   Where you have a strong 
signal from a cell tower, typically near a window or outside wall. Signal strength may vary in different parts of your home.
•   Near an electrical wall outlet.
•   In the general area where you’ll be using 
your home phone, computer, or Wi-Fi enabled devices.
Select which phone and computer/Wi-Fi
enabled
device you will use
with the AT&T Home Base:
•   A cordless phone system with multiple handsets should be used 
to place phones throughout your home.
•  If using an existing phone, unplug it from the wall jack.
•   For Internet access, you may connect up to 10 devices via Wi-Fi 
and one via Ethernet simultaneously.

Important Information
In-Home Wiring
Interconnecting to home telephone wiring is not necessary, but is possible; however, it is not recommended unless you possess sufficient knowledge of electrical systems. Use with home wiring requires the physical disconnection from other services, including the landline coming into your home. Use of a qualified licensed electrician is highly recommended. Improper installation may result in phone equipment damage or even a fire.
Important Information 2120
E911 Service
For emergency calls, you may have to provide your location address to the 911 operator.
Power Outages
The AT&T Home Base has a back-up battery in the event of a power outage, with talk time of up to 100 minutes depending on environmental factors. However, a landline phone requiring separate electric power to operate (e.g., cordless phones) connected to a Home Base will not place or receive calls (including 911 calls) during a power outage.
The AT&T Home Base will disable Wi-Fi to conserve power while using the back-up battery when there are no devices connected. To re-enable Wi-Fi while using the back-up battery, press the On/Off button for one (1) second. Or, if power is available, plug the AT&T Home Base into an electrical wall outlet.
If you experience a power outage and your battery is fully depleted, it will be necessary to restart your device when power is restored by pressing and holding the On/Off button for three (3) seconds until the power light stays steady green.
Device Compatibility
The AT&T Home Base is not compatible with wireless messaging services, home security systems, fax service, medical alert systems, medical monitoring systems, credit card machines, IP/PBX Phone systems, or dial-up Internet service. May not be compatible with your DVR/Satellite systems; please check with your provider. DSL customers should contact their provider before transferring a phone number to ensure uninterrupted DSL Internet service.
The AT&T Home Base cannot be used to make 500, 700, 900, 976, 0+ collect, operator-assisted, or dial-around calls (e.g. 1010-XXXX).
Important Information

Frequently Asked Questions
What kind of phone do I need to work with the AT&T Home Base?
Most standard touch-tone phones may be used. Rotary phones are not supported. Expandable cordless phone systems provide the most flexibility and allow you to easily place additional handsets throughout your home. Cordless phone systems still need to be plugged into a power outlet. A standard corded phone can be used if you just need one phone in your home.
During a power outage, a standard corded phone which doesn’t 
require electrical power is required.
How do I install my AT&T Home Base?
Refer to pages 4-10 of this guide for the most common installation methods. Other helpful information:
•   Installation near a window or outside wall is strongly recommended 
to ensure the strongest possible wireless signal in order to maximize voice/data performance.

Radio Frequency (RF) Energy
This device meets the government’s requirements for exposure to 
radio waves. This device is designed and manufactured not to exceed the
emission limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission of the U.S. Government:
The exposure standard for wireless mobile devices employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6 W/kg.*
While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various devices and at various positions, they all meet the government requirement.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this device with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR information on this device is on file with the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of http://www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid/ after searching FCC ID: Q78-Z700.
* Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions accepted
by the FCC with the device transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands. Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified power level, the actual SAR level of the device while operating can be well below the maximum value. This is because the device is designed to operate at multiple power levels so as to use only the power required to reach the network. In general, the closer you are to a wireless base station antenna, the lower the power output.
