I have no dial tone on phone

There may be no dial tone on the Inseego BPC100 phone due to the following reasons:

1. The AC power adaptor is not properly connected to the unit or the wall socket.
2. The phone cable is not securely plugged into both the phone and the BPC100 unit.
3. The signal strength is too low; check the Web Interface to ensure there are at least two bars of signal.
