[Electronics-Talk] home phone on cell signal

[Annette Carr]

I have no idea of the model number of our Panasonic landline phone.  The
feature you are looking for is call "Link2Cell".  I did a quick Google
search and came up with many Panasonic models that offer this.  For example,
here is 1 such option:

Panasonic KX-TGE27
Link2Cell"
Features 
.Sync smartphone to home phone, no landline required
.Link up to two smartphones to make and receive cell calls with Link2Cell
handsets
.Never miss a text with talking ID alerts from Link2Cell handsets
.Find misplaced cell phones with a button on the base
.Dial easily with large buttons on handsets and base
.Hear messages, call back and more with Smart Function Key

(It appears that you can get this model with 2, 3, 4 or 5 handsets.)
 
$129.95 + shipping
I think this is the price for the 2 handset arrangement.  I did not do any
type of extensive research to see if the "Link2Cell" feature is available on
less expensive models.

HTH,
Annette

				I've been wanting this capability for years,
mostly the ability to answer my cell from my land line since my land line is
easier to get to most of the time. 
Can you tell me more about these phones, where to get and how much?

Our Panasonic landline phone does have the ability to allow our cell phones
to connect via Bluetooth to the landline phone.  This is great when you are
at home and your cell phone rings.  You do not have to dig it out of your
purse or run to where it is charging at the other end of the house.  It also
allows us to avoid the cell signal dead spots in our house.  As long as the
cell phone is somewhere in the house where it can get a good cell signal,
the call quality is great.

I do not know if you can use the landline phone to direct an outgoing call
to your cell phone.  

HTH,
Annette

The Panasonic phones at walmart have that capability. If I understand right
from what you're looking for that you want your landline to work along with
your cell phone. I think it blue toogh's over to your cell phone. It also
talks the caller id. We really didn't get a close look of what it's all
about  but it sounded interesting.
