Digital or Analog phone

Post by seashores »

I was wondering if anyone knows whether you can use both a Digital and an analog phone...I heard analog only but I just wanted to know if anyone is using a digital one. I want to get a cordless for my magicjack but I don't want to get the wrong type.

Either one will work just fine. Digital/DSS (Digital Spread Spectrum) works better. :lol:

I agree, either one will work just fine, I have a DSS phone in the living room and an older analog cordless in the garage. The DSS seems to work somewhat better, but you really have to pay attention to call quality to hear the difference.

I have utilized my existing telephone house wiring to run the MJ to all the phones plugged into wall jacks. The setup varies slightly if you still have POTS service or if you are using the MJ as your primary terrestrial phone service. It is really very simple. If you have any questions just ask. Let us know your current setup and what you would like to do.

I just received my magicjack yesterday and really like it (except no area codes for Canada) if the quality that I'm receiving keeps up as soon as there is area codes for Canada I would like to get rid of my landline and have only magicjack....so I would really like to know how to utilize my landline jacks throughout the house any information would be great.

thanks
