WI FI on home phone

I would like to have conversations using wifi connections. this is due to using my hands for most of the day and using wifi will give clear talk and hearing as asposed to handfree, which has it problems.

    This is a pretty specific request. What's wrong with standard cordless phones? What is it particularly that makes you want to use WiFi?

    I don't really understand what you require. WiFi is a method for network devices to connect to each other without wires using radio signals.

    It sounds like what you want is a headset - ie. as in what call centre people use with an ear piece and microphone, or a bluetooth (wireless) headset like you use on mobile phones.

    If this is the case, I think some modern cordless, landline phones can use bluetooth headsets fine. Google is your friend to find out which ones.

    If you check places like Maplins / ebay you can usally pick up a headset that plugs into your home phone you you use that insted of the handset. You'll have the choice of wired or bluetooth / wireless options.
