RTX Skype DualPhone 3088 Quad Pack
Why choose RTX Skype DualPhone 3088 and not a Wifi Phone
Because it is more reliable (DECT), has no interference problems with other wireless devices (Wi-Fi, Bluetooth), has a much longer talk time (more than 10 hours), standby time (more than 140 hours) and range (up to 300 meters). In practice the DUALphone 3088 has a superior voice quality with increased distance between the handset and the base station/router. This is due to less packet loss and interference compared to a Wi-Fi phone. Furthermore, with the 3088 DUAL phone you get a 2-in-1 telephone for both Skype and ordinary landline calls
What is a DUALphone?
Only Your DUALphone combines two phones in one unit, allowing you to use Skype , SkypeOut , /SkypeIn as well as traditional telephony via landline. Thus, you can use your DUALphone on two networks, for instance allowing you to establish a conference call between users on both networks.
Is it easy to connect my DUALphone to the Internet?
Yes. It only requires you to connect the base station to a power outlet and to your Internet connection. However, you might need a router/switch/hub if you want to connect more units to the same Internet connection, for instance both your computer and your DUALphone. We recommend that you use a peer2peer friendly router for this purpose.
Are there any special requirements on my Internet connection?
Yes. You have to use an Internet connection that is 'Always on'. Some broadband connections demand that you log onto the Internet every time you wish to use it, and the connection will automatically close after for example 20 minutes of inactivity. Your DUALphone does not work with such connections, only with 'Always on' connections. Contact your Internet provider and get an 'Always on' connection. Possibly 'Always on' can be enabled via your provider's homepage
Can my DUALphone be updated with new software?
Yes. Unlike many other products, the firmware of your DUALphone can be updated to always give you access to the latest features
What Skype services does my DUALphone support?
