Le répondeur

If ‘le répondeur’ is linked to the landline, it would be known as an answering machine (in the UK)

Hi Anita, 

I did flag this up but I'm sorry I didn't realise it had been added.

We all agreed that when linked to a landline 'un répondeur' is an answering machine.

Merci Maarten !

Bonne Continuation !

Anita, it looks like that has been added. 

The one I don’t get is ‘ le réseau ‘ being translated as ‘ reception ‘. 

As I understand it, réseau translates as network, and réception translates as reception.
