The base station (the larger black box in the photo) must be plugged in to a switch or router using a standard ethernet cable. The charging dock (shown with the phone) can be placed anywhere with access to a power outlet, preferably within range of the base station so that your phone can receive a signal while charging.

The base unit (pictured on the left) plugs into the router or switch using an ethernet cable. It can support multiple cordless handets, but the protocol between the base unit and handsets is DECT. There is an included handset and charging base, which don't need to be located or hard-wired in order to make SIP calls.

The base unit has to have an ethernet connection into a modem or router. The base unit then communicates wireleslly to the handsets. However, you will want to check with your VOIP provider regarding which modems will work with the phones. For example, the business class modem/router units Comcast provides will NOT work. I had to get a stand-alone modem, connect it with a router, and plug the base unit into the router.

It isn't a wi-fi phone. It connects directly to your router via a network cable and uses DECT standard for the wireless handset. Read the description carefully before buying.

It does have wifi built in, which means in order to connect it to the internet you have to have access to a wifi connection somewhere! Now if you were asking if it is capable of having its own mobile data plan like the I pad or the Galaxy tablet then NO it doesn't! In order to put it on the internet you have to be somewhere where the internet is available like your home network or coffee shop or McDonalds etc. Hope that helps you out!

There's a USB port but no built-in wifi, etc. Also, it needs to be plugged in to household current so it's not mobile itself

Yes, the phone will work with wifi...in fact, this phone only works with wifi, it does not have a cable connection. It can be set-up with the router or with the WAP that comes with it.I have this phone and a Call Centric caption phone (wired/wifi) as well as an older Captel model (wired). I have been playing around with them recently and I am now thinking that the wired connection gives a little better performance with the captioning service. YMMV...

Mine is plugged directly into the router. If I am using the internet connection for anything else, the call acts like it is on hold or frozen.

Does not operate on wifi. It operates on a less used and wide frequency that wireless phones use. It has a couple of different channels to select from to avoid interference. I have 3 in different locations around the house and workshop and no problems other trying to use one at extreme distances then, like a wireless phone, static ensues.

Yes this phone does have wifi. It does use a sim card and you can use a micro SD memory card.

No. This phone doesn't have any data capability so wifi isn't really needed.

No, it'll take whatever address the router issues because nothing needs to connect to the phone. The phone connects with whatever voip service you use, so as long as it can reach the Internet and no one is filtering voip traffic you're good.

It is WiFi enabled. The Ethernet port is just for the initial configuration to set it up.

Nope. It has built-in WiFi and will connect directly to your router. Works well.

It does not have a phone jack. If your laptop plugs directly into the phone line, then you will need a modem. If you are looking for wifi, many modern modems act as wireless routers as well

it attaches to the phone via wiFi. No you do not need internet for it to attach to the phone. But you will have to have wiFi turned on in the phone's general settings, the camera acts like a AP (access point) and you connect to it.

To clarify maxmasa's answer, connected to the DEVICE via WiFi. Not connected to an external WiFi network. This device uses WiFi direct to connect to your phone.

Yes, my device has a WiFi connection. The 3G usb modem I purchased is in Spainish and is locked, I have not gotten any use from it. For me it is a waste of money only the micro card reader works.
