The REN is useful to determine the quantity of devices you may connect to your
telephone line and still have those devices ring when your telephone number is
called. In most, but not all areas, the sum of the RENs of all devices connected to
one line should not exceed five (5). To be certain of the number of devices you
may connect to your line, as determined by the REN, you should contact your
local telephone company to determine the maximum REN for your calling area.
If your fax damages the telephone network, the telephone company may discon-
tinue your service temporarily. If possible, they will notify you in advance. But if
advance notice is not practical, you will be notified as soon as possible. You will be
informed of your right to file a complaint with the FCC.
Your telephone company may make changes to its facilities, equipment, opera-
tions or procedures that could affect the proper functioning of your equipment. If
they do, you will be notified in advance to give you an opportunity to maintain
uninterrupted telephone service.
