iPhone won't ring unless it already knows the number calling

My phone - and that's the only function I really care about - WILL NOT RING unless it knows the number calling. This is a disaster!

Go to Settings>Phone>Silence Unknown Callers.

Turn that option off.

iPhone does not ring always I have asked this question, I was in touch with iPhone provider here yesterday. We did all the things that were suggested here and online with provider. An important call was sent to me 11:15 AM ( iPhone 16 updated) while I was online with the network modem within 36" I did not get the ring, but I did get one from that provider 2 hrs later. WHAT HAPPENED? (frustrating)
