Do you want to have the ability to do everything on your mobile that your desk phone can do?

Soft Clients on your PC:

Telstra Business Connect is TIPT’s soft client and is available for any user with a standard or an executive pack. Business Connect logs in and allows you to make and receive calls on your desk number via Windows and Mac OS.

Just because you have a call centre doesn’t meant this has to stop when working from home. You can have full access to the Call Centre and Mireception application Via the Internet and use Business Connect to log in and out of your queue.

I'm surprised you didn't add a link to the "how to TOTI phones". Though that may require a power pack, PoE switch, or power injector to use at home.

[BradKelly]

Nathan,

Yes you could however as you point out there are a few challenges in terms of power packs or PoE switch

If you want to take the handset home - see post below

A telecom telephone support person told me we had an outage on our landline, which was correct.  He offered to forward all landline calls to my mobile and I agreed.  Now I cannot change it back and don’t know if the landline is fixed because we do not have a dial tone on the landline.

[BradKelly]

I would suggest you call faults to have them remove the call foward.

[TIPT1964]

is there any setting in Business connect for headset when Using on PC ...intermittent issues  cant hear and also when dial out no ring back tone can be heard

[BradKelly]

Yes - in the app - click file - options - audio/video and then select what device you want to use
