Product Description

Uniden UIP1868P Whole House VoIP Phone System is quite unique. First, it's a 5.8GHz cordless phone system that also has a corded phone in the base unit. Second, you can connect up to another 9 additional optional cordless handsets to this phone to make this a phone system covering your whole house. Third, it doesn't use normal phone service, it uses VoIP.

VoIP stands for Voice over Internet Protocol. You're using your home broadband Internet Connection as an alternate way of making phone calls. The Voice over Internet service is purchased through Packert8. Packet8 is an affordable and easy-to-use broadband telephone and videophone service. Designed with both residential and business customers in mind, Packet8 allows anyone with broadband (high-speed) Internet access to use their regular phone to make UNLIMITED calls to anywhere in the U.S. and Canada for as little as $19.95 per month. All Packet8 subscribers get world wide UNLIMITED calling to other Packet8 subscribers at no extra charge.

Internet Phone Service a snap - just plug the Ethernet cable from your broadband modem into the Uniden 1868 base station, configure the built-in router and you're ready to go. Sleek and attractive, the Whole House VoIP Phone looks good at home or in the office. Designed specifically for Packet8 Internet phone service subscribers, the UIP1868P eliminates the need for a separate router and broadband phone adapter. Fewer boxes means more space and less wires to contend with. It is optionally expandable to up to 10 cordless Uniden handsets, enabling subscribers to access their Packet8 service in every room of their home. Also, the built-in router is tuned to prioritize voice packets and manage available bandwidth better than standalone routers. 2-way radio communication 20 distinctive rings Programmable Call-ID or memory locations Each cordless handset has port for adding optional headset Packet8 VoIP Service Inclu

Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Packet8 phone.......2007-01-18

I am completely happy with this phone, good sound quality, in base and remote. Very user friendly.

1 out of 5 stars Right product - Wrong version.......2007-01-04

I cannot really rate this product because what I thought I was ordering was for Vonage and not for Packet 8 service.

I was rather peaved at Amazon because when I did a Google search for the model I thought I wanted, the UIP1868V and saw a link with a good price on the Amazon site, the UIP1868P came up. I did not realize that the phone also had a Packet 8 version because I did not know there was such a service.

The phone was shipped by Tiger Direct and to their credit, the took the phone back and gave me a full refund.

GREAT PRODUCT. I REALLY LIKE IT ONCE GOT IT UP AND RUNNING. IT WAS A LITTLE DIFFICULT FOR A SIMPLE MINDED OLD MAN, BUT I MANAGED.

5 out of 5 stars FLAWLESS PRODUCT & SERVICE.......2006-06-22

I've had this working in my home for about 6 months now and it works flawlessly. The setup is really easy - just plug it into your dsl/cable modem/router and the electric supply and that's all there is to it! Absolutely no complaints whatsoever. Great value for money especially now with the rebate..

5 out of 5 stars vonage service has gotten better.......2006-06-16

I CHECKED THE OTHER REVIEWS (THE BAD ONE'S) AND I THINK SOME OF THEIR PROBLEM'S ARE POOR INTERNET CONNECTION'S BUT LOOKS LIKE VONAGE HAS INPROVED A LITTLE TOO. I DID HAVE A PROBLEM THE FIRST DAY ,TWO OF US HAD THE SAME NUMBER. THE SOUND IS BETTER THAN MY PHONE COMPANY.I HAVE HAD IT OVER A MONTH NOW AND I LIKE IT. WHAT I REALLY LIKE IS NO JUNK PHONES CALLS,I KNOW THE LOCAL PHONES CONPANY GIVES OUT MY PHONE NUMBER ,HEHE THEY DON'T KNOW MY NEW PHONE NUMBER AND I PLAN TO KEEP IT THAT WAY. BE CAREFULL WHO YOU GIVE YOUR PHONE NUMBER TO.
