Doesn't sound that much to me. We have 4 ethernet, 1 USB and 5
wireless connections to our router here with no issues of that
type.... Don't know what router you use, but I thought most of the
newish ones (at least 5 years or so) can handle up to 254 connections.

Well, it's a Belkin (love 'em or hate 'em) F5D8630. I do get the occasional
blip on the network front. Can more or less rule out the cabling to the
exchange as that was renewed a couple of years back. The internals are
good - filtered face plate and a very short run to the modem/router. New
Cat 5e cables.

When I run Wireshark, the scrolling of traffic is frightening. I mean, I
know that electronic switching is done at the speed of light, but Gordon
Bennett, it's an almighty blur. And you're saying it can handle 254
connections? Blimey.

Well, I assumed that most modern routers could handle "loads" of
connections. Can't find confirmation right now, but I believe the
Speedtouch 780wl can handle 254 connections and it's hardly the
highest spec piece of kit around..

Looking at the Belkin manual on:
http://belkin.httpsvc.vitalstreamcdn...5d8630_man.pdf
it seems that your model can handle 100 computers/connections (see
pages 26-27 of the manual).

I bought one and after a delay of a couple of weeks due to it being out of stock it duly arrived.
It seems to work well enough, although not as good as my Linksys WIP330, and I made and received SIP and cell calls on it. The main problem I had was with battery life. I found I was only getting around 12 hours on standby at best.
I am in the process now of RMA'ing it back to Sipgate for exchange.

Does anyone know where the stand/charger can be obtained?

Can't find an answer anywhere about this. Maybe it's one of those things
that 'just happens'. I had a series of dropped connections yesterday - not
all on account of the phone though. All wireless was dropped at one point,
although the wired connections were still up. At another time everything
went, and not even a power cycle of the modem restored it. I don't think
it's owt to do with the ISP or BT as nothing's been reported. I know a lot
of ISPs will lie through their teeth, but the Entanet crowd are up front
with their problems, so I tend to trust them.

Anyway I pulled what I didn't need off the network, so I'm left with a
wired PC and the Pirelli, and everything's been sweet over night. I'll just
leave it as is today and see what occurs.

Or infrared, but for the price, very good. All I need now is DECT
support..!

Oh, I don't like the way the predictive text works, it's not like my Nokia
and there doesn't seem an easy way to add words to the dictionary.

I'm not sure that predictive text has a dictionary (unless only for
user-defined words?), just some spelling rules

Yes, my Nokia 6310i has a user dictionary that stores words you add that
it didn't previously know. However there must be a base dictionary for
common words or how would it know what spelling rules are..?

But with the Pirelli I can't seem to add words to the user defined list,
if indeed it has one. It decides that my mate's name Colin is in fact
"Bolivia" and won't let me select any alternatives or add the name Colin
manually.

So Ivor has you have said in another posting "Or infrared, but for the
price, very good." may be but had you paid the asking price elsewhere
for these phones I wonder if you would be saying the same ? .
Personally the more I read what others have to say about them
including yourself the more I am thinking they are a load of crap
considering the asking price elsewhere.

I don't know how it works, maybe only in groups of 4 or 5 letters, but
in a bored moment, you might start a new game by doodling in a few
words like kohlabbalvsfalllllty or wadouioubabacbali or klinkabdoteidu

or even copy down the word in the image that Google now wants me to
enter to post on here ...

no reason to assume that, maybe just superseded models at clearance
prices

You might also find the UT Starcom F1000G for £40, Siemens S450IP for
£50

maybe they don't have the latest features, but I didn't notice anyone
saying those 2 are junk
