I live in the US and just bought an Ericsson cordless phone 260 (dect)
while overseas. It works fine here (after I converted the power
supply) except for the calling party identification system. I know
that the 260 model is equipped to display the caller's name/number,
but all I ever get is "EXTERNAL CALL" flashing on the display. I have
two handsets, and neither of them will show caller information (of
course, I subscribe to the CallerID service here). My first thought
was that the caller identification system is different here in the
states, and that is why it won't work, but my brother owns a european
model dect phone (a philips) and its caller identification system
works fine. So I think my initial theory is wrong and there must just
be a setting that I can change. 

Can anyone help me out here? I'd love for the phones to display the
caller information.

Thanks so much.
