Checking/changing the network settings
An IP address is required in order for the home network to "recognise" your phone. The IP
address can be assigned to the phone automatically (by the router) or manually.
•
If the address is assigned dynamically, the router's DHCP server automatically assigns an IP
address to the phone. The IP address can be changed according to the router settings.
•
With manual/static assignment, you assign a static IP address to the phone. This may be
necessary depending on your network configuration (e.g. if your phone is connected directly
to a PC).
To assign the IP address dynamically, the DHCP server on the router must be activated.
Please also read the user guide for your router.

The local network is connected to the Internet via the standard

Enter the IP address of the preferred DNS server
The DNS server (Domain Name System) converts the symbolic
name of a server (DNS name) into the public IP address for the
server when the connection is made. You can specify here the IP
address of your router. The router forwards phone address requests
to its DNS server.
