Hi Fritz, Please find the steps in registering the cordless headset to phone base station below: Step 1: Put your phone into registration mode Locate the page/intercom/find button on your phone’s base unit (this is the bigger unit which is plugged into your phone point). Push the button and hold it for 3-5 seconds –you may hear a beep or a pulsing sound after doing this (depending on the model of the phone). The phone is now in registration mode and ready to be registered with the headset. Step 2: Registering the headset Locate the mute/volume adjust button at the top/back of the headset. Push this button in (as if you were muting the call) and hold it down for around 4-6 seconds. Your headset and phone should now be registered and you should hear a dialing tone when using the headset. For incoming calls you would simply need to press the answer button on the headset to answer/end the call. To make an outbound call using the headset, you need to make the call on your cordless handset and then transfer the call to your headset. Please refer to the manual for this process (this is the same as transferring a call from one handset to another).

BT Diverse 6450 Twin SMS
Mr. David Williams
Great phone thanks to Which Magazine. So easy to use & the SIM copier is excellent. Make sure you upgrade your SIM to one that holds 200 numbers though as it is much easier. Ligo is faultless. I will never buy from the High Street again. What is the point when you get 36 hour delivery? Many thanks to Ligo for making it easy to buy...& the best price!

the over 70's and new technology!

Parcel arrived very promptly and worked right away! and the biggest bonus the instructions were in fairly plain English, even I could work out how to put numbers in my phone book, first time ever. I dont suppose I shall ever learn how to use all the clever bits but as I'm of a generation that wants a phone to be a phone I am quite happy. The second handset is very useful as I can have it permanently along side my chair or take it around the garden, and the ring is nice and loud! Glad I stuck to BT, thanks

Good points
The handset and base look nice and the handsets handle well. The screen is clear, the menu is easy to use and installation is straightforward. Copying contacts from a mobile SIM card is very useful, as is having a separate contact list in each handset. Editing the directory is easy and copying the directory from handset to handset provides a quick installation. The intercom facility is also very useful. I have not used the answerphone in anger yet. On the whole, I am pleased with my purchase and recommend the product.
Bad points The only problem so far is that one of the handsets, two rooms distant from the base station, keeps dropping the wireless signal to the base. This may be because it is sited next to my large desk-top PC and wireless broad-band router. I didn't have this problem with the old Philips Zenia though. One other point is that the base station requires a handset to be placed on the base in order for it to be registered, which means it is not possible to register other types of handset with this base station. This cordless tlephone system is, in my opinion, expensive, although it was my choice based on specification and design, rather than price. Other thoughts There should be more openness of design of base stations in general, allowing different manufacturer's handsets to be registered with different base stations. Ken

An update to the review: I have now successfully registered my Skype CIT200 telephone with the BT 6450 Diverse base and one of the BT Diverse handsets with the CIT200 base, proving that the two systems are compatible. liGo

Did you manage to overcome the problem with dropping the signal from the base as I have the same problem? Second handset is next to pc with wireless broadband router and it keeps cutting off when there is an incoming call. I was trying to find out what frequency it transmits on to select a different channel on my router but can't seem to find that info

SUPER SUPPLIER / PRODUCT
Anonymous
What a fast and professional company to deal with, this item was delivered within two days as promised. I can totally recommend Ligo Electonics to any one who cares to deal with them. This product was the cheapest on the web and the service was just as good. Many thanks to Ligo for this.

Good range of features and easy to connect
Bad points When on base, handset remains permanently lit -unnecessary, and a nuisance in the bedroom. Additions to directory not automatically sent to the extra handsets. James

You can put the handsets into power saving mode and the screens will blank?

You can set an audible message alert, and you can hear any meassage left when you play it back. We were not asking for a lot, but our choice of equipment was limited.
Bad points Playback is not loud - but it is clear. Why are the ringtones available on handset not available on base unit? Scope for a great cocophony!

Good looking phone and " does what it say on the tin"
Bad points The Diverse manual could have explained 1. To stop BT 1571 taking unanswered calls and letting the answering machine take them you have to reduce the ringing time to 15 seconds 2.In order to get SMS to work you have to send an initial text to 00000 I did but answering machine could not receive text messages so I had to contact BT who advised sending a further text to BT no 00000 with message " reset" and all is now working property. SMS only work within the UK no international text can be sent/received 3 Found it a waste of time downloading photographs when the name/number hides it

Faultless!
Jeremy
Works exactly as expected. Excellent range and quality and a doddle to set up. Headset is a real bonus. Only minor quirk is that I could only upload something like 8 pictures before the phones ran out of memory, and those pictures are obscured with the callout box containing the callers name when I get an incoming call. Think I can live with that though!

So very easy
Melinda Thornber
I have become phobic about phones, as I am hopeless when I buy a new mobile. So I expected a challenge when the BT Diverse 6450 Twin SMS arrived. It came very quickly - within a couple of days, and I was sitting looking at the box for several hours. But when I opened it and charged the handsets, I was absolutely amazed to find that I didn't need a degree in something or other, because this was easy. I commend the site for quickness in delivering and for price. Am I thrilled with my new house phone? You bet I am! Linda Thornber, Crosby, Merseyside

Phone recieved in promised timescale. Product does everything it says it will. Constant light display whilst charging a slight distraction in bedroom location, but soon ignored. Overall, well satisfied. |
