Before Setting Up 

 

The VAB-1 uses a cellular network and/or terrestrial broadband for internet communication.  The VAB-1 does not 
use carrier provided phone wall jacks (POTS lines). 

 

Select which phone(s) you will use with VAB-1  

 

Before you begin setup, unplug your existing phone(s) from the wall jack(s). 

 

If you would like multiple handsets throughout your home, please use a cordless phone system that 
includes multiple handsets.  

 

Select a location for your VAB-1 device 

 

An ideal location balances several factors: 

 

Near your existing phone. 

 

Where you have a strong cellular signal from a cell tower, typically on the first or second floor near a 
window or outside wall. Signal strength may vary in different parts of your location. 

 

Near an electrical wall outlet. 

 

Near your broadband router. 

 

Device Installation on a Tabletop 

 

The VAB-1 is designed to stand alone on a horizontal surface, i.e. desktop, tabletop, or shelf.  Make sure the 
bottom of the device (the side with the circular battery cover) is facing down on the table top.
