  • I have an old landline phone that you plug into the phone socket with a cable. I'd like to make it wireless - i.e. move it to a different room without having to run a cable. Can I do this? If so how?

  • Can I do this?

    Anything is possible, but the amount of effort required to implement such a scheme is disproportionate when you can buy a twin DECT set for about £30

    If you're incredibly attached to the aesthetic or ergonomic factors of your existing telephone apparatus, the easiest way to make it wireless is going to be by buying a DECT set and patching the existing speaker/microphone/dial[ling-pad] into the guts of a DECT handset, and plugging the DECT base station into your socket.

  • Funny you should mention it but it's exactly for aesthetic reasons I'd like to keep the phone. @grams suggestion of a VOIP adapter looks promising following a cursory Google. Anyone have any recommendations to avoid the inevitable follow up questions from me?
