Review on Hamilton CapTel 840i: Enhanced Captioning Corded Telephone for Hearing Loss - Connects to Telephone and Internet Service by Christopher Scales

My brother originally bought this for my elderly father who is hard of hearing when using the phone. It doesn't stay connected to the Wi-Fi router, and unfortunately there's no way to plug in an Ethernet cable where it's being used. A day later at the latest, it will show a message that the router is not turned on or is unavailable if all other devices in the house that are connecting to the WiFi are not having any problems. I initially connected it to my main Wi-Fi network, but after a while it seemed to refuse to connect to it, insisting that the router was turned off. I then decided to turn on my router's "guest" networking feature and it got a bit more stable but still caused problems at times. It's good that I live with my parents and am a "techie" to be able to maintain and troubleshoot the phone. The phone's other features work fairly well, notably the answering machine, phone book and volume boost, but if you're really handing this to a non-technical person and don't want to deal with connection issues, look elsewhere.
