Chapter 3: Getting Started
The Skype Wi-Fi Phone requires a wireless connection to a Wi-Fi access point to
operate. In addition, the access point network must provide access to the
Internet to make Skype calls.
You can set the phone to connect to specific wireless networks or search for
“open” networks, such as public hotspots. Wireless network information is stored
in the phone’s memory as “Preferred Networks” that are searched for each time
the phone is powered on.
When powering on the Skype Wi-Fi Phone for the first time, there are no
Preferred Networks in the phone’s memory. You need to select a wireless
network and sign into your Skype account before you can start making calls.
First-Time Startup
