Title: Poor reception in an old house
Product review: I've had this phone for a few months, purchased it to replace an older model Panasonic that broke down thanks to my small children. I thought that the higher freq would be better b/c I live in an old home and I have a wireless network for my PC's. Of the four phones, one worked only 1/4 of the time from day 1. The other three phones provide spotty reception in several areas of my older home, especially in the 2nd floor and basement. But even walking one or two rooms away from the phone's base made conversations difficult. I never had this problem with other cordless phones; I'm not sure if it's the model per se, the frequency (1st try at this higher freq) or just a lemon. Numerous phone conversations have been peppered with static and dropped words. I've tried everything to fix the problem -- it seems like my only solution will be to toss out this model and buy a new one all together.
