Starting the connection assistant
Precondition: The base station is connected to the mains power supply and a router. Your
router is connected to the Internet (page 17).
Tip: Leave VoIP activated as the default connection for your telephone (default setting,
page 116). The telephone then attempts to establish a connection directly to your VoIP pro-
vider's server after the connection assistant is closed. If incorrect/incomplete information
means that the connection cannot be established, messages will be displayed (page 22).
Please note:
Your phone is preconfigured for dynamic assignment of the IP address. In order for your router to "rec-
ognise" the phone, dynamic IP address assignment must also be activated on the router, i.e. the
router's DHCP server is activated. Turn to page 120 to find out how to assign your phone a static IP
address if necessary.
As soon as the handset battery is sufficiently charged, the message key f on the handset
will flash (approx. 20 minutes after you have put the handset in the charging cradle). Press
the message key f to start the connection assistant.
