Fongo Adapter functions

Post by Guillaumefr »

Hi,

I would like to know if I buy the "Fongo Home Phone Adapter",

Can I connect the "Fongo Home Phone Adapter" to a Wifi network without using a cord? (only Wifi waves)

Can I connect the "Fongo Home Phone Adapter" to my fix landphone (that has a cord linked to because I do not want a cordless one)

Thank you,

Guillaume

The Fongo Home phone adapter does not have native wifi capability, so you would not be able to connect to wifi directly. You could purchase a wifi repeater with an ethernet port, which can connect to you wifi, and you can connect to the repeater with the Fongo Home phone adapter.

You can connect the Fongo Home phone adapter to your old telephone handset. It can be cordless or not. I tried, but rotary phones will not work with the Fongo Home phone adapter.
