First steps
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 15).
Tip: Leave VoIP activated as the default
connection for your telephone (default
setting, page 98). The telephone then
attempts to establish a connection directly
to your VoIP provider's server after the
connection assistant is closed. If incorrect/
incomplete information means that the
connection cannot be established, mes-
sages will be displayed (page 18).
Please 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 101 to find out how to
assign your phone a static IP address if neces-
sary.
As soon as the handset battery is suffi-
ciently 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.
You will see the following display:

via the Internet before you have made the nec-
essary settings.

any time via the menu (page 99).
Downloading VoIP provider data

the Siemens server on the Internet. Vari-
ous profiles with general access data for
different VoIP providers can be down-
loaded here.
