Activating the fixed line network connection as an alternative
connection
You can activate the fixed line network connection on your phone as an alternative
connection. If an attempt to establish a connection via VoIP then fails, an attempt
is made automatically to establish the connection via the fixed line network.
An alternative connection would be used in the following cases:
u
your VoIP connections are busy
u
the SIP server for the VoIP connection cannot be accessed
u
the dialled VoIP connection has not yet been configured or has not been config-
ured correctly (e.g. incorrect password)
u
the base station does not have a connection to the Internet, e.g. because your
router is deactivated or not connected to the Internet.
Exceptions
u
SMS messages that are to be sent via a VoIP connection are not sent via the
fixed line network connection as an alternative. The SMS message is stored in
the incoming message list with an error status. Your handset's message key will
flash.
u
If a URI or IP address is dialled instead of a phone number, the connection can-
not be created via the fixed line network.
