Due to the fact that this home phone indeed needs a wireless signal to be powered you will have the flexibility of taking it where ever you go and using it once there is a wireless connection.  The boundaries are endless. You can take it to a vacation home, RV and other places that you desire. As such no broadband or dial-up connection is required.

 

The Advantages of having a Wireless Home Phone

 

At work – as suggested earlier, you can take your home phone with you wherever you go and use it once there is a wireless connection. Take for example you are the vice president for an established company and also the mother or father of a child that is sick and the only contact that the doctor has for you is your home number.  He will have no trouble getting in touch with you even when you are at work doing that very important presentation since there is a wireless connection at work.

 

Cheaper – in today’s society there are just a few places that you may go that does not have an Internet connection. As such, taking your home phone with you can definitely be an alternative to the cell phone once there is an internet connection at your destination.  This is also very cheaper.

 

Mobility – there are many wireless home phones in the sense that there are no wires or cables attached to them for provision of service.  They are known as cordless phones. These phones normally have to be kept on a ‘stand’ so that it is kept charged. These are normally more reliable the closer they are to the home location.  Having a wireless phone for the home, on the other hand, makes it easier to move around the home without having to worry about losing the connection. If you have a router that is attached to the phone then there will be guaranteed internet connection in and around the home and you will never have to worry about the signal dropping when you are on your very important calls.

 

When buying a wireless home phone system there are a few things that you must ensure are present. Some of these include:

 

• Call waiting – this is a service that you can activate on your phone if it gives you the option.  It allows you to be notified of incoming call even while on the phone with an existing call. If you desire to answer the incoming call, you are able to do so with this feature by placing the current call on hold.


• Call forwarding – with this feature you can route incoming calls to a number specified by you.  In that way you can answer the call from another number that you choose. You can opt to turn this feature on or off as you desire.


• Caller ID – with this feature your phone will identify and display all incoming calls. This works by the service provider acquiring and decoding the incoming call information then sending it to your line.  This takes place in a matter of seconds and will make it easier for you to accept calls. You will be able to avoid calls that you do not want to take as well as simply knowing who is calling before you actually answer.


• 3 way calling – this allows you to add another party to a regular two way call without the assistance from an operator. This makes it cheaper and more convenient for you to speak to more than one party about a particular subject since you will not have to hang up and keep calling them to relay any messages if needed.


• Basic voicemail – this service makes it possible for parties to leave any messages that they want on your phone if they were not able to get an answer.  They can also choose to request a call back from you with this feature.


•  TTY/TTD compatibility – this feature has moved mountains as it relates to calls. It makes it possible for people who are deaf to enjoy the features of a phone just as the person with hearing abilities. This technology incorporates text into the calls in such a way that the messages between the hearing and the non-hearing part can be understood. What it does is to translate the voice message from the hearing person to the deaf person by converting the audio into text that can be read by the deaf person.  In replying to the message the deaf person would reply with a text that would be converted to an audio that will be automatically read to the hearing person.

 

This new way of having a home phone is definitely forward thinking and a breakthrough in technology. There are hardly any limits where wireless home phone service is concerned and there are so many things that you can do with it and endless amount of benefits.
