Using the Gateway
Placing a telephone call with the Gateway is the same as using a telephone with a standard
telephone provider.
First Call
If you have two lines, you can place the first call from one phone line to the second phone line on
your Gateway. This step ensures that the Gateway is operating properly and that all configuration
information is correct.
