Please note:
For your base station, i.e. for the phone and router, dynamic assignment of the IP address is preset
(DHCP enabled).
If you have disabled DHCP on the router, you must first assign your phone a fixed IP address and save
the router's private IP address (192.168.1.1 by default) as the standard gateway and DNS server on
your phone, see page 58.
Please note:
The connection assistant will also start automatically if you try to establish a connection via the Inter-
net, before you have made the necessary settings.
You can also call up the connection assistant at any time via the menu (page 60).
The phone establishes an Internet connection to the Siemens server, where various profiles with gen-
eral access data are available for different VoIP providers. If the phone cannot establish the connec-
tion,
Server not accessible!
will be displayed. See page 20 for details on how you can test/establish the
Internet connection if necessary.
