How to Keep Your Landline Without a Phone Socket: A Guide to the Geemarc CL2000 4G Telephone Adaptor
No landline? No problem. Here’s how to stay connected during the UK’s Digital Voice Switchover.
With the UK’s Digital Voice Switchover in full swing, millions of homes are being moved off the old landline network. But for many people - especially older adults and care home residents - this change has raised big questions:
- “How do I keep using my landline phone?”
- “What if I don’t have broadband or can’t access my router?”
- “Can I move my phone around the house or take it with me if I move?”
If you’re looking for a simple, socket-free way to keep using your landline, the Geemarc CL2000 4G Telephone Adaptor is a reliable, wireless solution that’s easy to set up, even without technical know-how.
What is the Geemarc CL2000?
The Geemarc CL2000 is a 4G landline adaptor that allows you to use a traditional corded or cordless landline phone without needing a phone socket or broadband router.
Instead of connecting your phone to the wall or a digital router, you plug it into this portable 4G router. The CL2000 uses a mobile SIM card and the 4G mobile network to make and receive calls. Just like a mobile phone, but with your existing landline-style handset.
Common Problems the CL2000 Solves
Problem 1: "My landline doesn't work anymore after the Digital Switchover"
With copper lines being switched off, most homes will need to plug their phone into their broadband router, not the old socket. But what if your router is nowhere near where you want to place your phone?
✅ Solution: The CL2000 is completely wireless. As long as it’s plugged into power and has a mobile signal, it works - no wall socket or broadband needed.
Problem 2: "I’ve moved rooms in a care home, how do I take my phone with me?"
In care settings or supported accommodation, room moves are common. But most digital landlines need to be plugged into one specific socket or router, making relocation difficult.
✅ Solution: With the CL2000, just unplug the adaptor and phone, move them to your new room, plug it in, and you’re connected again. No technician visits, no Openreach engineer, no stress.
Problem 3: "I don’t have broadband but still want a landline phone"
Many users don’t have or want broadband internet, especially older adults. But without broadband, most digital landline phones won’t work after the switchover.
✅ Solution: The CL2000 connects via 4G mobile network, not broadband. It works with a regular SIM card (not included), giving you the flexibility to make and receive calls without needing the internet at all.
