STEP 6
Connect to Your
Internet Service
There are two ways to connect to your Internet service:
Option 1: Wired
– using an Ethernet cable to connect to the Internet.
Please follow instructions for “Wired Installations” below.
Option 2: Wireless
– using your home/office WiFi network to reach the
Internet. Please follow instructions for “Wireless/WiFi Installations”
on page 14.
For Wired Installations
1. Plug one end of the Ethernet cable into the jack labeled “Ethernet”,
located on the back (top) edge of the
CapTel
880i. Be sure to use the
Ethernet cable that came with your new
CapTel
880i phone.
2. Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable into the jack you use to access
your Internet service. Depending on how your Internet service is set up for
your home/office, you could be plugging into any of the following:
• An available Ethernet jack on a digital cable modem
• An available Ethernet jack on a DSL modem
• An available Ethernet jack on a router in your home
• An available Ethernet jack in a wall outlet
NOTE:
When connected properly, the LNK/ACT
indicator light will glow. The LNK/ACT indicator
light is located next to the Ethernet jack on
the back (top) edge of the CapTel 880i.
