I need to buy new 4 voip phones for home which ones should i buy?

[Frances113]

I moved from BT broadband plus analog phones to sky +talk and waiting for the delivery of the new  router next week.

Which phones should I buy? I want to change the handset with voip dedicated phones.

Should I choose wifi or DEC ones?

Personally i just have 1 panasonic dect phone.  So go for a panasonic dect base station with 3 or 4 secondary handsets . Avoid anything that say bt digital voice as these are limited to bt broadband

Note that while the bundled Sky Talk Internet Calls is VOIP under the hood, it does not use VOIP phones.  If you purchase VOIP hardware to attach to the Hub over either WiFi or ethernet you'd need a separate subscription to a VOIP call provider.

The customer interface to the Sky service is a standard analogue BT jack socket: it's the internal Hub hardware which converts the signal from any attached analogue or DECT handset into internet traffic.
