I too had problems with an extension phone not ringing and caller ID missing calls. 
This seemed peculiar as I'd been using the exact same setup for months at another 
address with no problems whatsoever. I've just this week replaced the extension cable 
and since then things seem to be OK, but as the fault has been intermittent I'm not 
100% sure yet that I've fixed the problem.
