How To Install Your VoIP Internet Phone

In order to start using your VoIP service, you will need to install your VoIP Phone Adapter.

NOTE: If you currently use a USB connection between your computer and your Cable/DSL modem, you will need to upgrade to an Ethernet connection. This may require you to purchase and install a Network Interface Card (NIC) for your computer

What you will need:

• Two Ethernet cables.

• One standard phone line.

• One standard analog telephone.

• The VoIP Phone Adapter.

• The VoIP Phone Adapter power supply.

Installation Procedure

1. Turn off the power for all devices, including your Cable/DSL modem to your broadband connection, and computer.

2. Connect an Ethernet cable (the green one included with your Lingo device or another cable just like it) from the Cable/DSL modem's Ethernet port to the WAN port on the back of the VoIP Phone Adapter.

3. Connect a second Ethernet cable from the ENET port on the back of the VoIP Phone Adapter to the Ethernet port on the computer.

4. Connect a standard analog telephone to the PH1 port on the back of the VoIP Phone Adapter using a standard phone line. (Note: any phone designed for residential use is an analog phone and will work. For cordless phone systems, make sure you are connecting to the base/transmitter).

5. Turn on the Cable/DSL modem. Wait until it is successfully connected (see your modem's user manual or contact your ISP if you are unsure of how to tell when the modem is connected to your broadband connection).

6. Connect the provided power cable to the POWER port on the back of the VoIP Phone Adapter, connect other end to any standard home outlet (wall plug, surge-protector, etc).

7. Verify the POWER light on the front of the VoIP Phone Adapter is on. If it is not, check your power connection again.
   The WAN light on the front of the VoIP Phone Adapter will begin as a steady green, then start flashing as it connects to the internet through your broadband connection
   While the WAN light is blinking, important files are downloading. Do not unplug the power or lift the receiver on your phone at this time, as it may cause you to lose service.

8. Once the green VOIP light is on, you are ready to place calls.

9. Turn on your computer. After your operating system loads, use a web browser to verify that you can access the internet through your broadband connection.
