Sailor 150, Sailor 250, and Sailor 500 

Please ensure that DHCP is enabled on your Sailor 

terminal. Refer to your Sailor user manual for 

instructions on how to turn on DHCP. 

Connecting your Sailor Fleetbroadband terminal to 

Optimizer Voice via Ethernet will automatically 

enable VoIP-to-Circuit-Switch. 

Unless you have RedPort VoIP service enabled, all 

outbound voice calls will automatically use your 

standard satellite airtime rates. 

The only time you will need to go to the “Sailor” 

tab in the Optimizer Voice web interface is if your 

Sailor FleetBroadband terminal is not your primary 

device (ie: if it is being used for failover with a 

VSAT system), if you have changed the password 

for the Sailor 501 extension, or if you want to use a 

di

erent extension than 501. (This may be the case 

if you have IP phones plugged into your Sailor 

system). 

If any of these cases is true, you will need to go to 

Services > VoIP PBX > Sailor FBB and

1. Input the IP address of the terminal (refer to the 

Sailor user manual or your installation 

technician for this address).

2. Change the extension number.

3. Change the password for that extension.

4. Hit “Save and Apply”
