The only time I come into contact with DECT is during the yearly CCC hacker congress in Germany. And of course I bring an old phone just for the fun of it.

- mbirth 2y agoIn Germany, many people love routers from AVM called “Fritz!Box”. They all can act as a DECT base station to use with either normal landline or Internet telephony. AVM also has a line up of smart home devices based on the DECT standard that work in conjunction with their routers.
