If you pick up your phone and find that there is no dial tone or error message it means that your phone adapter encountered a problem during start up.

Most offten this is caused by an interruption in the phone adapters ability to communicate with our network while it is downloading a new configuration file.

• First we need to determine that the phone you are using is plugged into Phone1 of your phone adapter.

• Secondly we need to ensure that your phone adapter has a clear line of communication with our network.

• Ensure your phone adapter is connected to your network properly (You can double check HERE)
• If your phone adapter is connected behind a router ensure that it has been configured not to interfere with the VOIP communications by setting up port forwarding or DMZ access
• After we have made sure its connected correctly and your network is configured properly we will need to restart your phone adapter to allow it to properly download a new configuration file
