Making Settings For Voip Telephony - Gigaset S540 IP User Manual

First steps
Making settings for VoIP
telephony
Before you can use the Internet (VoIP) to
phone any other users on the Internet, the
fixed network or the mobile phone net-
work, you need the services of a VoIP pro-
vider who supports the VoIP SIP standard.
Precondition: you have registered (e.g.
via your PC) with a suitable VoIP provider
and set up at least one VoIP account.
The following phone settings are neces-
sary in order for you to use VoIP. You will
receive all information from your VoIP pro-
vider.
u
Your user name with the VoIP provider,
if this is required by the VoIP provider
u
Your registration name
u
Your password with the VoIP provider
u
VoIP provider general settings
The connection assistant will help you
with the settings.
Starting the connection assistant
Precondition: The base station is con-
nected to the mains power supply and a
router. Your router is connected to the
Internet (page 11).
Tip: If is activated as the default con-
VoIP
nection for your phone (default setting
page 68), the phone will attempt to make
a direct connection to your VoIP provider's
server after the connection assistant is
closed. If incorrect/incomplete informa-
tion means that the connection cannot be
established, messages will be displayed
(page 14).
Note:
Your phone is preconfigured for dynamic
assignment of the IP address. In order for your
router to 'recognise' the phone, dynamic IP
address assignment must also be activated on
the router, i.e. the router's DHCP server is acti-
vated. Turn to page 71 to find out how to
assign your phone a static IP address if neces-
sary.
