Customer ReviewsReviewed on 2007-06-01  
Low quality, incomplete offering
The software is very, very unstable on this device. It will end up either crashing hard--requiring you to remove the battery pack--or it'll act as if it's working, but not actually take or make any phone calls. Besides, D-Link does not offer a cahrging cradle for this phone, nor a replacement battery pack, nor any way to carry this "portable" phone. Although this device demonstrates some promising ideas, any but the hardiest of early adopters would be well advised to wait for a more competent offering. |  | Reviewed on 2007-03-08
Didn't work with our system
We had to return ours. We couldn't get this phone to link with our Apple wireless access, nor could we get it to call out, so we couldn't use it as a VOIP phone. | | Reviewed on 2006-11-02
Deceptive advertising
The DPH-540 works well enough at home if you have a wireless network. I am hoping it will work if I find a kind person during my travels who leaves their network open. However, it will never work at a wireless hotspot unlike it's advertising on the D-Link website where it shows the Wi-Fi phone connecting to a hotspot. Reason? It simple does not have a web browser or java script capable of logging in. According to tech support: it never will.
Without this functionality its more a toy than a phone with real communication capability.
