    How do I get around a landline being the number used to text code to?


    I want to update my security information but what is currently set is a landline phone number. The only option provided in updating security settings is for microsoft to text a code to the number provided. Again, it is a landline and cannot receive texts. How do I get around this? There doesn't seem to be other options.

    :)
