[asterisk-users] WiFi SIP phones

[Cosmin Prund]

I'm personally interested in one of those VoIP/DECT phones (where the
VoIP is handled by the "base" and the base-connection is wired) but I
wander if they are better than a standard DECT phone + an ATA (I've
already got two DECT phones pluged into ATA's around the office + 1
@home and I know for sure they work really well).

Specifically: Does the Siemens support "rejecting" an VoIP call? Does it
start ringing & showing Caller info immediately (as opposed to the
ATA+DECT combination, as that requires 1 ring to get caller info)

Thanks,
Cosmin Prund

I'd just like to say that I purchased a siemen S450IP recently and so
far so
good it's a nice handset and works better than previous wifi phones I've
used. This is most likely due to it being dect gap where the base
station
handles the voip side and not the phone thus avoiding issues with 802.11
wireless and phone packets.

Dee

Greetings list,

What are people's experiences with WiFi SIP phones?

When I last looked into them about 18 months ago, they were incredibly
expensive, had very limited range and poor battery life. In the end, it
worked out much more cost effective to simply use ATAs + DECT cordless
phones where there was a requirement for portable devices.

I assume things must have moved on somewhat since then. What models are
currently out there people would recommend I look at?

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Chris
