Telephone or Fax Connection

When properly connected, most telephony devices can be used with the Wireless Voice Gateway

just as

with a conventional telephone service. To make a normal telephone call, pick up the handset; listen for a

dial tone, then dial the desired number. For services such as call waiting, use the hook switch (or FLASH

button) to change calls. The following procedures describe some of the possible connection schemes for

using telephony devices with the Wireless Voice Gateway.

1.

Connect a standard phone line cord directly from the phone (fax machine, answering machine, caller

ID box, etc.) to one of the LINE jacks on the

Wireless Voice Gateway.

2.

If there is a phone line in your home which is NOT connected to another telephone service provider,

connect a standard phone line cord from a jack on this line to one of the LINE jacks of the Wireless

Voice Gateway. Connect a standard phone line cord directly from the phone (fax machine, answering

machine, caller ID box, etc.) to one of the other jacks in the house that uses that line.

3.

If you have a multi-line telephone, connect a standard phone line cord (not an RJ-14 type line cord)

from the phone to the LINE jacks on the Wireless Voice Gateway. (Other phones can be added to

each line by using standard phone line splitters.

Turning on the

Wireless Voice Gateway

After installing the

Wireless Voice Gateway and turn it on for the first time (and each time the modem is

reconnected to the power), it goes through several steps before it can be used. Each of these steps is

represented by a different pattern of flashing lights on the front of the modem.

Note: All indicators flash once before the initialization sequence.

If both DS and US LEDs are flashing sequentially, it means the Wireless Voice Gateway is automatically

updating its system software. Please wait for the lights to stop flashing. You cannot use your modem

during this time. Do not remove the power supply, switch off (on/off switch) or reset the Wireless Voice

Gateway during this process.
