Parents had FTTP installed, went from ADSL to FTTP because they are on WBC FTTP no FTTC is available.

The install happened during Lockdown1 and the person doing the installation would only install the ONT at the first location they could get to where the fibre duct met the wall of the house. They would go nowhere else in the property. Are you sure they will do as you are expecting?

Possibly this was due to my Father being in the shielding/vulnerable category.

Yes, but be prepared for Caller Id not to work and also you will not have the 2 line functions.

I gave up and decided to register the Gigaset handsets with the SH2.

And you need to dial 1571 to get the voicemail from the Gigaset handsets.

Where the dropwire hits the house is where the ducting will start - it cannot go on the other side of the wall as it is a bedroom and it would be at the head of the bed.

So, one of two lofts ...


If they drop down to ground level, there is a radiator there, so again not suitable.

The location is exactly where the existing master socket and hub are located.

Point was that it had never been ported or used on any other service - copper PSTN only for that time.

I need to wait and see, as pictures sometimes show the analog phone port, however there is a Yealink DECT base station and handset.So where is the VoIP interface? In the hub or Yealink base? And apparently Yealink will not work with Gigaset handsets ...

Thanks for the connector info.

Cheers!

BT Business broadband can be supplied with a Business Hub and Yealink SIP DECT phone for their Cloud Voice service, whereas the BT Retail broadband is supplied with the Smart Hub 2 and Digital Voice from the inbuilt ATA.

You can replace the Business Hub with a third-party router, the Yealink phone still works.
