With a cordless phone you can be on Skype 24/7, and talk wherever you like – in the kitchen, on the sofa, in the bedroom – and with additional handsets you’ll always have one to hand. Cordless phones are really straightforward, you don’t need to be a techno-wizz to use them. Dialling phone numbers works just like on a phone, except you get to choose whether to use your landline or Skype to route the call. Unlike a regular phone you can also see if your friends and family are online on Skype, and talk to them for free if they are. Built-in DECT technology ensures that you get clear sound quality.
What’s the maximum range for cordless calls?
All cordless phones use a base station to relay your call to the handset, so the connection range depends on the make and model. For example, the Philips VoIP 841 has over a 300 yard range. Some models also allow for handsfree conversations.

Set up details
Setting-up a cordless phone is straightforward. The base station comes with two cables – one plugs into your broadband router, the other into your landline phone socket. Then just turn on the phone, sign in to your Skype account and start talking.
