Activating the fixed line network connection as an alternative

connection

You can activate the fixed line network connection on your phone as an alter-
native 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
configured 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
cannot be created via the fixed line network.
