I just had my phone switched from an 'analog' (standard 2500 set) to a
AT&T ten button 'digital' set on our System 85 to gain an additional
two lines.

In doing that, I lost the ability to use a modem on the line. Is there
any way to use a standard telephone device (like a modem or answering
machine) with this phone? It's got a second eight-pin RJ- jack on the
back marked 'OTHER'...

The identifiying numbers on the phone are: RF90IL-19, Z7403D01B and
845P11. Any source for a device to add a standard RJ-11 device to this
phone would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance!
