All student bedrooms have one active phone connection, which is shared between roommates.  You may split the phone connection in the room if you wish, however, we recommend that only one phone be installed and used in residence hall bedrooms.

To find the active phone port:

1. Enter your bedroom

   1. Make sure you are in your bedroom and not in a shared common area.
      

2. Look out your windows
   
   
3. Turn to your left and find a network box on the wall.
   
4. The active phone connection will be in the left port of the bedrooms left network box.
   
   
    

Instead of hearing regular dialtone when you pick up your handset, the phone system will break the tone, which is referred to as "broken dialtone", when you have new voicemail messages.
