VOIP phones for Digital home phone

heelisp · ‎14-12-2023

Hi

I have purchased digital phones to link to my EE smart hub plus. The work fine, but I would also like to use a desktop phone, mainly so I can use a headset. Does anyone know if you can use VOIP phones with the hub.

As an alternative is there anyway to use a headset with the existing set up.

Hi @heelisp a desktop phone won't work with the Digital home phone service. The phones need to be connected via the green socket on the back of the Hub or DECT.

Thanks

Neil

You can use any DECT phone system. BT's version of VoIP, Digital Voice, is just how the signal is transmitted over the Net.
