Any way to View Incoming Caller ID Other Than STB or Phone?
I know I can see the caller ID on a STB-connected TV or a capable phone. Is there any way I can see who is calling from a network connection to the RG other than phone or STB? I know I can see the call log on the RG after the fact but I'd like to see it as the call is coming in since I'm often not near a TV or wired phone.

Press the menu button
handset - #162
base -#*162
If you do it on the handset it does just that handset. If you do the base it does the whole system.

Thanks, but let me be more specific: Is they any way I can see the ID w/o buying h/w? From a browser or computer app?

All the free apps are based on leaving a message. If you can allow it to go to voicemail, then you can see it on your computer & other devices via app or browser. Maybe you can petition att for enhancing to trigger on ring.
There was a free version of phonetray (did not see it today) But you need a phone modem. If you have one or can get one dirt cheap, you can find out if there is a free version available.
If you have video input on your computer (or can get it dirt cheap etc,) connect it to the STB output.

OK, thanks. That's what I thought. I know I can see the ID after the call has ended but that doesn't help.
