Great deal on a cordless phone with good range.

 

Perfect for a college dorm or spare phone in a laundry room or garage.

Not good if you have a wireless network, though...

we've had 2.4ghz phones for a few years now and they've never interfered with the wifi network.

Are you using 802.11b or 802.11g?

[Brad]

802.11b

[Guest beatmix01]

it also depends on what channel your wifi is set on.

I knew I should've qualified that! :)

 

802.11g interferes with 2.4GHz devices (or is it vice versa?). I never really fiddled around with it too much (settings/config/etc.), but when I do use wireless at home, my connection gets dropped from time to time... but then again, I also have X10 running all over the place.
