In my o2 app I see that I have a “Festnetznummer “ Landline Number. 

I don't understand what this number is for?

How do I use this number.?

The number shows no area code?

Do I need a special telephone to connect to my HomeSpot router ?

I am on the o2 My Home M tarif with the included HomeSpot router

Nice greetings to all.

Hi @ukguy,

every German landline number starts with an area code. This means that the first few numbers depent on the city you are living in.

You have to connect a normal phone to your o2 HomeSpot router to use the landline number. Please have in mind that you can only call other German landline numbers for free. If you call a mobile number you will have to pay.

I don’t unterstand your first question. It is a landline number. Every contract includes one. You can’t boil an egg with it :wink:

Kind regards,
Alex

Hi Alex

Thanks for your replay.:slight_smile:

Have a nice day.

 


Hi @ukguy

 

welcome back to our English Community. Thanks for your request concerning the included landline-number in your homespot-tariff. 

 

Did @MXP_Alex answer all your questions? I had to laugh when I read the sentence: 

 

You can’t boil an egg with it :wink:

 

Your landline-number is only beneficial for incoming calls. Just imagine that somebody who calls you does not have a mobile phone-flatrate. With many DSL-tariffs a mobile phone-flatrate is not so common. In this case, you can give the person you landline-number so that the person can call you for free. :wink:  

 

I hope I could help you with this information. 

 

Loving greetings,

Tobias


Hi Tobias. I had to laugh too at 

You can't boil an egg with it

I love German Humour its quite “ Dry” and to the point. Sadly German humour is lost in Translation! As you all know the English humour is rather crazy ! But I  love The German and English cultures , Makes life more interesting.

Tobias thanks for the additional information.

Next question what phone do you recommend to connect to the Homespot ?

Will I need some kind of adapter ?
