Find IP Address

The VTA telephone adapter has a built-in configuration utility. To access this utility, you need

to obtain the IP address of the VTA. By default, the VTA telephone adapter automatically

obtains an IP address from your DHCP enabled router or DHCP server. If you do not

have DHCP enabled, the IP address will automatically be set to 192.168.15.254. If you

do have DHCP disabled, you must use a 192.168.15.x network or statically assign the

IP address of a computer to 192.168.15.x (where x is between 1 and 253). You can then

connect to the configuration utility of the VTA and change its IP address to an available

IP address of your network. You will need to change your computer back to the original

IP address.

To find the IP address, log into your router or DHCP server and locate the DHCP table

(reference the User Manual for your router or DHCP server as necessary). The table

will display all of your network clients (using DHCP) that are connected. Search for the

Vonage VTA’s MAC address in the table and the IP address will be listed next to it. The

MAC address is on the bottom of the Vonage VTA device.

Note:

The terms

MAC Address

and

MAC ID

are used interchangeably.
