Does anyone know how to connect the dialer to call a cellphone WITHOUT using a traditional phone line. I would like to connect my cellphone to the dialer. I think ADT offers something like that, but requires their service plan. Thanks for any suggestions.

My suggestion is to find is there any service provider that can give you a phone based on wireless connection. the dialer needs a rj11 connection to make calls.

This device has no direct WiFi or cable interface. It communicates using a 2G GSM SIM card dialer or a landline dialer. When ATT and T-mobile discontinue all 2G service (currently by 01/01/17) the internal cellular communication will cease to work in the USA. The landline phone dialer feature will not be effected. There is a secondary output that can trigger other devices like a 3G or better cellular dialer or a stand alone device that is capable of sending a message via the internet.

We have not installed this yet but I belive you can use cell phone numbers. You program the auto dialer with phone numbers. Once I install I can tell you more. I also sell on amazon as LibraryLois. Contact me through there.

The dialer requires a land line to dial out of. Once the connection is made the host can then call any number that you program to the host. Including cell phones.

If you use Microsoft Lync or a similar soft-phone application (PC software based telephone system) you do not need a phone. You can also connect to your mobile phone by bluetooth or to your land line. I do not have the system connected to my land line so I do not know if I could dial from the touchscreen without the phone. My guess is yes you can but the touchscreen is very small and it would likely drive you crazy when trying to dial from the tiny little dial pad. Right now I dial from my PC screen using Microsoft Lync or I could dial from the tiny touchscreen.

This device works on the handset. The handset must be removed from the cradle for this device to work, so unfortunately, it will not work with the handset on the cradle and the phone in the speaker mode. This is why a device that connects directly to the line, not the handset cord is better. If you have no dial tone when the handset is off the cradle, and it is connected correctly, then most likely you have a defective device.

It can call cellphones but it cannot be connected to them instead of a landline. It has to detect dialtone before it can make an outbound call.

Yes you can. You can opt to use it as an independant cordless unit. I have the dect phones but I do not have mine bound to any of them. I dial with another phone if needed and then hang it up and use the head set for the rest of the call. This has worked well for me so far.

Hi - I had this phone in the US with no poblems. I've moved back to Australia and have encountered some issues which may be related to the banding that is referred to above. I have found that when I connect the phone line it calls the handset continuously. WHen you answer there is just a dial tone and static. Has anyone else had this or been able to resolve? In regard to the different voltage - you just need to buy an adaptor that converts the output to the same as the old adaptor. I think I paid $30 at Dick Smith's.

Only the base set needs to be connected via phone line (and it's the only one that CAN be connected). The secondary handset and base simply need to be plugged in to an electrical outlet.My only frustration with the phone is that the "ringer" is so terribly quiet--even when cranked up to its loudest. Is hardly audible from another room--and certainly not when the TV is on.

You just pick up a regular phone and dial. There is a standard dial tone and you dial just like any landline. Setup is fast and easy.

Yes, It does not offer a dial plan. So, you must either press # or wait for the dialing timeout before it dials (8 secs I think.)

You have to attach a standard phone cable to the wall jack. You can buy a splitter so that the phone and the unit uses the same wall jack; very cheap. The phone has no part in the process since the unit dials out to any number(s) you select. I have a portable phone for my house phone but as I said, it plays no role in the call out process. The unit works well after you understand the instructions.

I wish I could help you. I think being able to ask questions of someone who already uses a particular product is great. Unfortunately I no longer have or use this product. I remember really liking it. I bought another phone that allowed me to sync with my cell phone and have my cell calls ring on my home phone. Sounded great but had issues so I disabled that feature. It's been a while but I think another issue I ran into was this phone stopped holding a charge and replacing the battery was expensive. Good luck getting your question answered.

I have no idea, but perhaps that is what my problem is. When I dial out, I get a response the line I am calling is not in service. I am trying to problem solve with Verizon but not solved yet. I will look through the paperwork that came with the phone to see if perhaps it is some sort of 'registration' issue that is causing our phone to not work. On another topic, the attachments, like the wrist and necklace require registration before they will work with the phone. My issue is just getting the phone to work.
