It worked for a few months, then started to say system unavalibe all the time, if you reset the system it works for about a day before saying this again, freezes up when checking voice mail or trying to call people randomly, no more updates on firmware so please do not buy this as a warning; THEY HAVE DROPED SUPPORT FOR THIS PRODUCT. I have an IT degree and have messed with this item for a while beliving that tweeking it would help, but sometimes things just do not work. Skype is a good service, dont screw it up buy purchasing this phone.

I bought this POS and for most purposes it works just Linksys CIT400 Dual-Mode Internet Telephony Kit with Integrated Skypeokay (about a 6 on a scale of 1 to 10 when compared to most landline cordless phones). Some of this I could blame on skype but we use an iPhone (apple) for skype too and it works great. The main beef I had was that touch tone does not work once you make a call, so if you reach the hall of messages requesting you enter a tone, you are helpless and must either wait for a voice prompt or hang up. What a drag right? And then you go to the cisco linksys site and it is 5 shades of useless. Finally found there is a firmware file to download. Then what are you supposed to do with it? I have a mac sorry to say and there is NO information on how to upgrade the firmware using a bin file. I am clueless and I know a couple of things about computers. The chat support on the cisco site does not support this product. Anyway, perhaps if you feel like tinkering for a couple of centuries this would be an okay product. But the sound quality and responsiveness are vastly inferior to your run of the mill cel phone. I make my skype calls with headphones talking into my macbooks mic and it works way better. Sorry I bought it.
 excellent sound quality, but.. January 18, 2009

I bought two of them and I only paid $109 last year, so don't ever pay more than that for it. The sound and ease of installation are perfect. It saves time and does not need a computer to work. Just ADSL connection. Just the price is puzzling, I don;t know why it went up from $109 to almost $800 so don;t pay that much for it till they bring it back to its normal or just buy CIT300 and its the same
