Same thing here. We have had a lot of problems with the DECT phones. Batteries quit holding a charge... static... etc, etc.

I think in the documentation for the DECT phones it says multiple bases must be at least 6 ft apart. If its not in the Vertical docs I know its in the Avaya docs because its the same DECT phone on both systems. I have noticed on the Avaya side...just because we put them in more often..that we do have to replace the batteries alot....

Turned-out that the 4th DECT phone in our office did the same static/humming noise. Called Vertical and they've asked for the approximate purchase date of the DECT phones...tech support immediately sent us 4 new base station ckt-boards... which I installed around mid-last week. And as soon as I replaced all the ckt-boards of all the base stations, the static/humming noise all gone. We are still doing further observation though...hopefully it fixes the noise permanently. I have asked tech-support if there's any known issues with the ckt-boards or anything related to the noise...got no clear response. All 3 base stations are all more than 20 feet away and the 4th DECT phone is still in our office so I can also observe accordingly.

Thanks for updating. I hope that does the trick. I don't like it but sometimes I have to sell one of the Dect phones and I would like it to work.

sonny I had the same thing. They advanced replace and problems went away. Tech said they put in updated chip set. Must have been a bad bunch because some of mine from 1 year and a half ago are fine. They even followed up with a phone call to make sure everything was ok.
When they work they are great with range and sound

that's good news Jim! I'm also suspecting they have a batch that has this problem but vertical tech support didn't gave me a clear and straight answer...they just said they will immediately ship-out a new set of ckt-boards. it's been a couple of weeks now and hopefully everything's fine so we can collect their remaining balance. yes, we've had about 3 DECT phones installed like a year or so and didn't encounter any problem and all works well.
thanks. sonny

Bad news on my side Jim! Exactly one month after I replaced the circuit boards...the 2 DECT phones out of 4 have started to do the same humming noise. I haven't called Vertical yet as their Tech support is now closed. How about your case...was the humming noise totally gone after replacing the ckt board? Thanks. sonny

i initially didn't replace the other 2 ckt boards that were working fine but i had to replace it anyway as advised by Vertical tech support and it's also because i have to send back the set of 4. so far so good...//alvin
