Gigaset wireless phone does not connect to base station: disassembly and repair

Our Siemens Gigaset wireless homephone A415A, A415, (same as A475, A475A) had a problem. It could no longer find the base-station.
Is it the base-station, the handset or something completely different that causes this problem? Watch the video and see how I solved this.

Alternatively don't take the lot apart just do as per Gigaset instructions which is to "We recommend that you perform a Power On Reset. Remove the batteries from the handset and reinsert them after about 10 seconds. Please also disconnect the power supply of the base and router from the mains for 10 seconds. This procedure restarts the software in the handset and base station." This worked perfectly for me.

Van alle markten thuis dus, goed om te weten :-)

Why does a base station have a bridge rectifier if it is charger by a 5v dc switch mode power supply?
