No it cannot be plugged into a regular phone line. It has to be plugged into a network switch for use in VoIP networks.

I am sorry this is an internet phone and can only be plugged into the internet. you will also need to get a provider to provide the service for you.

No, this would not be considered an "additional" handset and does need an actual phone line in. Hope that helps.

No this phone does not require a telephone system or internet. You plug it into a standard phone line just like you would any other land phone.

I have this phone. The handset has a standard plug on both it and at the phone, so you can simply plug your headset into the phone receptacle instead of using the handset cord.

No you can't! I was very disappointed. I have to use it for 6 months with the prepaid plans to be able to use it on a regular line.

It does need a dedicated phone line. The way around it is to use one of those little splitters. Plug it into your phone jack, then use one for the phone line, another one for the faxes.Or you can install an extra phone jack next to the existing one (if you know how).

No. This is an expansion handset that can only operate wirelessly with signals from a base unit. There is no direct phone line connection.

Yes. You can. Once you set up properly it just works like regular telephone. You won't be able to tell the difference.

Yes, a regular analogue phone line plugs into the back of the control box of this system. You must use their phones with the system. I use mine with my cable phone add I would Amy phone.

Yes. The phone uses standard cords for the phone and the handset. You can just snap a longer one in, or a shorter one, whichever you want. You do have to keep in mind that the plastic ends for the handset cord, like most other phones, are smaller than the plastic ends that connect to the phone. But, they are easily replaced. But they are standard cords and ends.

yes, unless you are going to use a computer or internet for making your calls, this does need to plug in to work.

Look for cellphone gateway. This device will connect to your cell with bluetooth, and will connect to your CO with a normal phone connection (rj11). Then you can use your cellphone as a regular phone line.

Yes. You only need to hooked up the base unit to the phone line. It works well.

The phone that we purchased has a handset that can be replaced. It has a plug and is not hard wired. Hope that helps.
