I sent it back for repair/replacement. They decided it was not repairable and sent another. The new one does ring the phone (once) much as the old one did (at one time) but then it crashes just like the old one. I suspect that if I keep ringing the phone whatever failed completely on the old one will fail on the new one. I guess people don't even test with mechanical ringers anymore...
