Although this name serves its purpose, it's a bit impersonal.

However, she cannot change the name of your BES email account on your phone, but you can.

Cordless phone Frequencies and what they mean to you

Corldess Phones have changed over the years, are you unsure what to buy are you wondering why you have issues with your wireless internet connection at home when someone is on the phone.

The two most common upto a few a years ago were

• 2.4 GHz (allocated in 1998)
• 5.8 GHz (allocated in 2003 due to crowding on the 2.4 GHz band

The 2.4 GHz phone was sold along with the 5.8GHz until recently when both were dropped and replaced with DCET 6.0

The 2.4 GHz phones were dropped since most home wireless devices now use the 2.4GHz range and were causing issues with dropped calls and slow internet connections.

Which one is best for you if you can still find a 5.8GHz phone there are no issues with them however they are hard to find.

The recently allocated 1.9 GHz band is used by the popular DECT phone standard and is considered more secure than the other shared frequencies.  This is a good thing since people with Scanners used to be able to listen in on conversations and you would sometimes end up with cross talk before DCET.

DCET 6.0 brings advantages over The 900 MHz and 2.4 GHz band are increasingly being used for a host of other devices, including baby monitor, microwave oven, Bluetooth, wireless LAN; thus, it is likely that a cordless phone will suffer interference from signals broadcast by those devices.

If you are looking for a new phone DCET 6.0 is the way to go.
