Xtreme Technologies XLink BT2, Bluetooth Cell to Home Telephone, Two Cell | Two cell phones Bluetooth connection

About a year ago, I decided I was sick of cell phones and wanted to be able to talk on a "real, old-fashioned" phone. At first I bought a MagicJack and plugged it into my computer, which worked fine with an 2002 SW Bell phone I bought on Ebay. However, when I decided to switch to a 1978 Princess phone (not the one in the picture, which I have since traded for the yellow, 2003 Crosley Princes repro), I found that the phone emitted a high-pitched whine when hooked up to the MagicJack. Since I had really fallen in love with the idea of a Princess phone, I began to search for a MagicJack alternative. After considering a variety of options, I decided that since, for practical reasons, I can't really ditch my cell phone entirely, this XLink BT2 might fit the bill. And it does! So easy to set up: just plug in the XLink to a power supply, plug the phone into the XLink, and push one of the buttons to pair it (via Bluetooth) with my mobile phone. In fact, it is paired with two different phones. It worked great with my original Princess phone and now works great with my Crosley Princess reproduction. When my cell phone and I are out and about, (out of Bluetooth range) my "real" phone doesn't ring, so it's not a bother to others in the house. Sound is very good, and I can use it to answer any calls that come in on my cell phone, including those that ring my MagicJack android app and my Google Voice app -- so it's like having an entire switchboard attached to my little Princess. I wish I'd done this a year ago.

Love it love it love it. This little adapter helped me to receive calls on my iphone and answer them on my home phone. I can hold it better hear better... very happy with the reception the sound the appearance and that it helps me be able to use my actual old phones.

Works great and super practical. I bought this because I kept calling my wife on her cell at home and most the time it wasn't on her and on silent. This way the phone rings audibly and she answers more often. Easy to set up and use. And it makes us feel like we're living in the 90's again, so also some fun novelty.

I wanted a rotary phone for nostalgia, but I don't have a landline. I found this item and decided to give it a try. It installs easily and works well. You can connect two mobile phones to it via Bluetooth. When my mobile phone is called, it rings with the classic ring. When my spouse's phone is called, it gives a slightly, yet discernibly different ring. It's interesting that I am able to dial out using the rotary phone. Sometimes I have to reboot the device, or reconnect to it, but that is not often. When I cannot connect to it, I receive pop-up on my phone that says "Cannot connect to XLink Gateway". That's when I either reconnect to it via Bluetooth or reboot the device. I liked it so much, I bought another.

Fast delivery. Simple instructions. Product easy to activate and use. I had a question about my iPhone features and XLink support went above and beyound to help. Product functions as advertised.

Amazing device - works with several of my vintage telephones. My western electric model 500 works perfectly along with my 1987 cordless telephone. Supports caller ID as well. Because this works with both Android and iPhone, I am able to take teams and zoom calls with this. The reaction to colleagues hearing me on either vintage phone is priceless.

UPDATE TO UPDATE***** Now besides dropping Bluetooth connection on some calls there is a massive static attack while using home wired phone....could this be a bad unit? *** UPDATE *** So after about 3 weeks of flawless performance the unit is now dropping Bluetooth almost every day and sometimes twice a day. The unit is plugged into the same outlet with the same cords and in the same location never moved. Problem is addressed by unplugging the unit and plugging it back in which is a real hassle. Not to mention the undependable feeling factor. I so wanted this to work. If I find a resolution I will update Original posting Everything woks as advertised and was easily installed. I only have one mini gripe...no ability to call out on either line using home phones. Right now I can answer either line but calling out from the home phone is restricted to the first installed (paired) phone. Clarity is good and no funky background sounds.

I had a land line at my house with many home phones through out the house. It was getting expensive. I was able to convert the landline number to a cell phone line that cost me nothing to have. But I wanted to be able to use all my house phones being they were already here. Bought this device and plugged my multiple phone lines into this device and within seconds all my house phones were usable again. I’m not one that writes reviews but this was so easy and works well I had to say something. If you are thinking about buying this stop thinking about it and buy it. It’s a good investment.

This works exactly as it should. I'm in nostalgia heaven! Using my old northern telecom phone! It's great because I get to use it and don't need to give people another phone number to call me on! Love this so much!🎉🎉🎉🎉

Works like a charm

So easy to install and works perfectly!! I had been wanting to use my old rotary phone for years and could not imagine paying for a landline…then I stumbled on this and was hopeful but still a bit wary until it arrived. It took a minute to set up and to my very pleasant surprise worked exactly as advertised!! I can receive calls on the old phone (oh that classic ring!!!) and also make calls with it! Yes! The rotary dial makes the phone call. I was so excited and now I just have to convince more people to call vs text :)

Worked great. Hooked it up to a rotary phone and had the teenagers to make a phone call.
