STEP 1
Before you set up your phone, make sure you already have:
Telephone Service
Connects to the CapTel 880i via a telephone cord using a standard RJ11
connection. Your telephone service can be any of the following:
• Standard analog service
• DSL (Digital Subscriber Line)
– filter recommended
• Digital Cable phone service
NOTE: Your CapTel 880i does NOT work with digital Private Branch Exchange
(PBX) phone systems found in some business settings, residential facilities,
and hotels, unless an analog port is available.
Access to High-speed Internet Service
Connects to the CapTel 880i via an Ethernet cable or via a Wireless
(WiFi) network. Your Internet service must be working properly in order
for the CapTel 880i to display captions. A high-speed Internet connection is
required. Dial-up Internet service will not work. In home settings that do not
have a wireless network, you may need a router or switch to connect more
than one device to your Internet service. Your Internet modem and/or router
should support DHCP. You should also check if a firewall is active on either
the modem or the router, as it might interfere with connecting the CapTel
880i to your network (see Troubleshooting on page 23 for tips).
Standard Electrical Power
The CapTel 880i plugs into a standard electrical wall outlet. You
must use the power adapter that came with the CapTel 880i. Using any other
adapter may damage the CapTel and will void the warranty.
