Your Caller ID unit may also require batteries or an external power source to operate correctly. If your Caller ID unit is not working, check the batteries or power source and be sure all batteries and power cords are installed properly.
Your Caller ID unit may not work correctly if there is too large of a load on your phone line such as multiple phones, faxes, modems, Security System, cable TV, etc. If your Caller ID is not working, try to isolate to the one inoperable Caller ID unit by isolating the other equipment from the line.
Your Caller ID unit may need to be reset. If your Caller ID unit does not display correctly, or not at all, try to reset it by completely unplugging and powering down the unit. Then plug it back in and power it back up.
Some Caller ID units may display a previously-stored name rather than the current name being delivered. If you receive an incorrect name on your Caller ID, check to see if this is the case and delete the entry from your Caller ID unit's directory.
Comcast switches provide 10 digits of Caller ID information on all calls; however, some Caller ID units may be set up to only display 7 digits. If the display is not showing the area code, refer to the owner's manual for the Caller ID unit for more information on changing the settings to display 10 digits.

Hope that is helpful.
