Using bluetooth a with wired phone...

Posted: 01-31-2005, 08:48 PM
Let me give you a quick background. I am one man software development shop
and I just got a great long distance dialing plan with my new cell phone
(Motorola v551 paired with a Jabra BT250 - they work wonderfully together)
and would like to use my cell phone for all my outbound calls, long distance
calls. My incoming business phone (toll-free and local service) comes in on
one of two hardwire lines. The second line is a roll-over line so if I'm on
the phone my wife can grab the call. I would like to use the BT-250 as a
headset for both phones without having to resort to forwarding my business
phone to my cell phone.

What's Been Tried: Working with Hello Direct I purchased a GN 6210 that
says it "should" work with a wired phone and the cell phone. It is
basically a bluetooth base with a special BT-250. I gave it a try and the
connection between the GN 6210 and the wired phone worked well but the
headset would not work with the v551. The GN 6210 would drop the bluetooth
connection after 10 seconds and I'd have to re-pair the headset and base.
We tried this with two different bases and neither worked with the v551 like
the Jabra BT250.

Here's my question... Does anyone know of a way to have a bluetooth headset
work with two different phones - a cellular and a wired phone? Any tips or
places to look further would be appreciated. Thanks!
