Installation
This section will walk you through the installation process. Placement of the router is very important. Do not place the router in an enclosed area
such as a closet, cabinet, or in the attic or garage.
Before you Begin
Allow the handset batteries to charge for at least 12 hours before you begin.
Read the
Opening Ports on Routers and Gateways
section of this manual if you are using the DPH-300S with a router or gateway.
The DPH-300S needs to be setup before use. You can use the
Quick Installation Guide
(included with the DPH-300S) to perfor m the
hardware installation. There is an easy to use setup
Wizard
built-in to the DPH-300S to accomplish the IP address setup. You will need to run the Wizard
and enter your Internet connection information in order to use your phone for IP calling only if you do not have access to Dynamic IP Addressing.
Dynamic IP Address
is the default setting and requires no user changes.
If you have Dynamic IP Addressing (also called, “DHCP”), check the Quick Installation Guide for information on the physical connection of the
DPH-300S, and skip to page 28 of this document:
Auto-provisioning.
Otherwise, continue to the next section.
