Not very good [Posted on 2008-02-13]
The reception on this phone is very poor, even in my house which has very good wireless connection. The battery life is also poor, lasts about 1 hour. I would not recomend this product.
case [Posted on 2008-03-02]
I do not know much about wireless phones, it seems to work well.. It needs a case. It's design allows it to be turned on to easily without one.
Good Skype phone, but I want some additions [Posted on 2008-03-25]
I bought the Belkin to help me with Skype access in three different office locations. The phone automatically works in all three locations, and each location has a different security key (WEP). The only drawback is that we use Skype chat a lot, and the phone doesn't support that. The other Skype users get a message that I am using a version of Skype that doesn't support chat, so its not a big problem, but I would like to at least receive my chats.
Voice quality is as good as a cell phone, except for a few network thruput problems (happens with Skype on a PC too).
The battery last 1-2 days usually, mostly two days. Since the battery recharges thru a standard USB port (and has a plug-in recharger), I can recharge it in the car lighter socket, wall socket, and off my laptop computer. I have the car lighter socket recharger from a different product.
Not in China [Posted on 2008-04-05]
Product works great but my primary reason was to use when traveling international. I even bought a travel wireless hub but can Skype from computer but China telecom's won't let you connect the phone! Check out limited countries where you can connect.
Belkin Wi-Fi Phone [Posted on 2008-04-25]
I wanted to get this phone because I spend a lot of time at a vacation home in San Felipe, Mexico. I have a Tel Cell phone that cost me $2 a minute to call the states. With the Wi-Fi phone it cost .021 cents per minute. We have a great wireless router and we talk all the time with no problems. This works great for our family. I think it will pay for itself within just a few vacationing weekends.
