to the voice call verification by adding the `--voice` switch at the end of above register command.
You can register Signal using a landline number. In this case, you need to follow the procedure below:
* Attempt a SMS verification process first (`signal-cli -a ACCOUNT register`)
* You will get an error `400 (InvalidTransportModeException)`, this is normal
* Wait 60 seconds
* Attempt a voice call verification by adding the `--voice` switch and wait for the call:

```sh
signal-cli -a ACCOUNT register --voice
```
