Limit to number of digital voice phones

[stbph01]

Before I was switched over to digital voice I had 6 DECT phones about the house and in the garage.

It seems that I can only have 5 digtal voice phones on the hub and wondered why it is not possible to have more if required.

I have a 6th digital voice phone that I would like to connect but it is not possible to register it as max number of handsets message received.

Any ideas why the limit is 5?

Just plug the old DECT base into the SH2 & it will operate as before.

Don't know why BT chose 5 as the limit for DV handsets, possibly all the SH2 could cope with given everything else it has to do.
