I live/work in a very large old Victorian mansion, i.e. lots of very thick stone walls, four floors etc etc. I have three DECT phones, two at one end and one at the other. they vary in cost from the cheapest, BT at about £75 & £100 to my own Samsung which was originally about £200 albeit a couple of years back.
Now in theory DECT is DECT and they should have an optimum range of 300m (yeah right!). The cheapest struggles to go 15m between 3 rooms. The middle one is a bit better, and the Samsung better still. But none of them will do the 50m between reception and office. When I bought them I tried numerous models and these we're the best at the time but that was 2 years back.
I did look at repeaters but each phone is actually on a different line so I think its getting a bit too complicated to extend the signal?
Has the technology improved or is there something better out there?
