I would highly recommend you buy these, I&rsquo;ve also owned a Beocom 4 which are fantastic but you can&rsquo;t link more than one phone which for me is a big disadvantage!!</span></span></p> <p>&nbsp;</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/236712.aspxTue, 03 Nov 2009 09:08:46 GMT41a2a90c-3a1e-4bd3-b144-3883695a7f38:236712Chrisreunion0https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/236712.aspxhttps://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=13&PostID=236712<p>Hi and welcome to the B&amp;O addiction (!),</p> <p>I am using my BeoCom 4 for all VOIP calls, because my Internet provider&#39;s modem/router has a conventional PSTN input.So the setup is dead easy.Whether it can work on other standards, I don&#39;t know.</p> <p>The interaction you&#39;re talking about is volume control on all B&amp;O audio &amp; video products, you can reduce or increase the volume of your system whether you want&nbsp;the friends calling you&nbsp;to hear your music or not. On the new BeoCom 5, you can even set up the phone to mute the sound or picture!</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/236696.aspxTue, 03 Nov 2009 04:05:13 GMT41a2a90c-3a1e-4bd3-b144-3883695a7f38:236696tjrundy0https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/236696.aspxhttps://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=13&PostID=236696<p>Hi,</p> <p>I&#39;m really getting hooked on all this B&amp;O stuff now - it only started with a book on comtempary design which I was reading (actually scanning pics) which showed some of the Beolab 6000 speakers. </p> <p>Now, I found the Beocom 2 - what an awesome looking phone! Whether it&#39;s worth &pound;350 (ebay) is moot, but they we always buy with the heart and backfill with logic, so here goes...</p> <p>I currently have a very ugly Cisco VOIP phone though it does work very well. I&#39;m wondering if anyone has managed to get the Beocom 2 working within a VOIP network?</p> <p>1. Are there any direct SIP to DECT base units? </p> <p>2. Has anyone had any success with using a SIP to PSTN bridge?</p> <p>I&#39;m just wondering whether functionality like caller id etc would be supported with so many links?</p> <p>Thoughts?</p> <p>Thanks in advance,</p> <p>Tom.</p> <p>ps. I read that it can control other B&amp;O products. How does it do this ? With IR?</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
