We have recently been switched over to digital and all of our existing cordless phones in the main house work fine having plugged the telephone plug into the back of the router.
So far so good.
The digital handset BT sent also works fine in the house but as we have outbuildings the existing analogue phone no longer works and the digital phone cannot connect to the hub because it’s too far away.
We have WiFi in the outbuildings as there is an Ethernet cable connection using the BT black discs at each end.
The digital voice adapter would seem to offer a solution but I’m not sure how this would work given the distance.
There is a telephone cable between the house and the outbuilding which was used to connect a socket for the phone but this no longer works now that the previous copper based service has been cut off.
A related but secondary problem is that the Security Alarm which had a BT connection to the telephone socket enabling the system to dial our mobile in the event of an alert.
BT engine visited and said there was nothing he could suggest for this or the first problem
help please
