Need a 2 line cordless phone

September 29, 2004 9:20 AM

SOHOFilter: I've recently got a second (VoIP) line into my home office and I'd like to be able to use both that line and my landline throughout the apartment. So, I am guessing I need a two-line cordless phone; trouble is I can't find one that is not 2.4GHz (bad for WiFi). A nice DECT phone would be preferrable, but I'd live w/ something plainer. Any pointers? Or is there a way to merge the two lines somehow and only use one phone set with both of them?

I bought this, and it works fine.

Oh, two line. Sorry, didn't see that part.

A quick begooglement of 2-line 5.8 GHz phone shows a number of results.

Even a 900 MHz should do, no? I bet they're cheap as hell by now.

Uniden's 5.8 GHz phones are nice and they have a 2-line model available.

Response by poster: Thanks guys; my Google-fu was obviously weak (I searched "multi-line"...)
