Nor me. I must be missing something: if it's using your cell connection,
why not just use the cell phone?

Why carry the cell phone everywhere in a large house when there is already multiple extensions.

I'm having Cable Internet installed. It's faster than DSL and allows me to discontinue the land line at the house.

In answer to another question about why I don't just use the cell phone. Big house and I don't always have the cell phone nearby. With the cell connect phones, I can have an extension on my desk, the kitchen and bedroom.

My thanks, too, for the helpful comments on the Vtech product. We currently use one of their models with our land line so it's nice to know their Cell Connect system also works well.

Other than the option to use a landline to the base station, this system does not use the extensions wired into the house, to spread the call to the handsets.

It uses wireless to connect to all the handsets, and has the option to use BlueTooth to connect the base station to one or two cell phones. (Two for this model, but only one at a time.)

I can not find (or understand) what frequency it uses between the handsets and the base in the manual, but there is the normal warning about placement and interference with TV, 802.11 WiFi and medical devices. It also give a warning about the lack of privacy, as in your neighbors can listen in with a baby monitor. I used to occasionally get cross talk with a neighbors cordless, more of an annoyance than a privacy issue.

Robert A., do you know what frequency they use? What is the range you are getting with yours?
