The factory phone and the teleaid phone are two separate units. The standard message that appears about teleaid is for the fact that the service subscription has run out. If that were the case the option can be deleted (with suitable liability waiver) in the cluster.

If one removes any piece of the optical network D2B, one will need to bridge it and reconfigure it. I am guessing that due to the removal of a D2B component the D2B network is broken and all that is required is to reconfigure it (and bridge the gap incurred with the component removal).
