Best cordless phone for home office (possible wifi issues)
Ok, here is the situation...
My wife is now working from home. Her current employer forwards her office line to a seperate new line they installed (AT&T) in our house.
My wifes home office is in the same room with all my servers and routers and wifi router. NOW, the only really change from when she was working at the corp office till now is two things:
1) New phone line
2) New cordless phone.
The issues:
Intermittent static and bad connections on the new phone line. We are using a motorolla cordless (5.
.
My question is does anyone know of a brand of phone (cordless) that works really well In a small office that has a lot of machines (computers etc...) in it.
Now there are many variables that could be effecting us, that are largely out of my control.
But I want to eliminate all the things I can before I start talking to the phone company and he place of employment.
Once again I am really looking for a make/model of cordless phone that works well in the above describe situation.
THANKS!!!!

What flavor of wifi are you using? B and G operate on the 2.4ghz spectrum. I don't believe that will interfere with a phone operating at 5.8. A traditional wired phone would really help you isolate the problem. Sorry, I don't have any suggestions for a phone. -

I aggree dynamik
that is why I got the 5.8 phone (I use a g network at home).
I am pretty sure it has something to do with the forwarding of the call... Be we will see.
Anyway thanks for your input!encrypt the encryption, never mind my brain hurts. -

900MHz cordless phones are common, very inexpensive, and excellent for avoiding interference with 802.11 wireless networks.
What does 900 MHz mean in a cordless phone? -

Here is a good phone if you have a money tree in your back garden
This link explains more info, it sends the signal twice, and the process to make the pure allum chassis is the same as the Hummer H2, hhmm, interesting
