if i have a router from AT&T and use wifi for this phone I get calls for free? I didntt buy any additional plans.

[Cyberz250]

No using a T mobile router only increases the battery life you can use any router but battery life will be shorter if you don't have the hot spot at home package priced at $20.00 I don't know if they're still offering it for $10.00 for new customers you won't have unlimited wifi calls also known as voice over IP calls so basically without a plan you're only using the router to get reception inside the home. I hope this helps

hey man...good review... i got this phone to a couple of weeks ago...i dont need the home land line service... but i got a d link router at home.now should i connect to my d link router or does have to be specific one provided by my service provider...if it is do u recommend i not connect to any router and just stay on cellular service whether im at home or away?My phone picks up pretty good reception in the house...its just that in one room for some odd reason the connect just drops to one. THX

Thanks a lot well if you use the router provided by the service when you're on wifi your phones battery life will be anywhere between 3 to 4 hours continuous talk time I've tested this with my regular router and the T mobile router using their router is much much better. But if you say you have good reception and only need the wifi for the one room. it's OK to use your router your phone may get a little hot and your battery life may drop but if is only for just that one room then it's fine.

Thanks for the informative review! Right now I don't have a mobile phone but am thinking of getting two if I can make it cost -effective. Hope I'm not being too personal, but how much does your plan cost per month? I would like to get rid of my land line, but I keep it for the DLS internet connection. Can I use a wi/fi hot spot from a cellular phone for my computer as well? And how is the connection speed, if that is even possible?

Also what's the best phone to buy for the T-Mobile hotspot.

[Mr291229]

Is this better then the home phone service. wifi, do u need an internet service provider, and how much does all this cost, phone,linksystem etc.

Thanks Cyberz250...you talked me in to getting the the 6310 and the hotspot router. And tsanderson24 just couldn't understand a word of all of this because he's a moron.

I just renewed my contract and I got a Samsung WIFI enabled phone, will T-mobile charge me extra on a monthly basis if I use the phone to make wifi calls on my existing Time Warner router? and can I just connect to any T-Mobile HotSpots like in Starbucks for free? or do I need to subscribe? Thanks
