911 Service Notice
Packet8 offers Enhanced 911 calling as a standard feature of its Internet phone
service. However, there are certain circumstances, when you dial 911 from a phone
connected to the Packet8 service, where E911 service may not function, or the E911
service may be in some way limited by comparison to traditional 911 service. Please
review the Terms and Conditions at www.packet8.net for additional information.
Before You Start!
Visit the Packet8 activation website http://activate.packet8.net/ and enter the
MAC address ID found on the bottom of your UIP160P. After you activate the
UIP160P, you will receive an email containing a 10-digit activation code. You will
need this activation code in Step 3.
STEP 1: Check Your Equipment
Check your broadband setup and the other equipment you will need:
• A broadband modem and a broadband Internet connection
• A computer with an Ethernet port (or a local Ethernet switch or router)
• One CAT-5 Ethernet cable
• The Packet8 10-digit activation code that was emailed to you when you created your
account. (If you don't have this email, go to www.packet8.net and enter the email address
and password used to create the account in the account sign in at the top of the screen.)
• If you want to use an analog phone or fax machine with the UIP160P, you will need a
standard telephone cable (RJ-11).
If you ordered your
UIP160P directly from
Packet8, it will already
be activated for you.
Your 10-digit activation
code was in the
confirmation email you
received when your
UIP160P shipped. (If
you don’t have this
email, go to
www.packet8.net and
enter the email address
and password used to
create the account in
the account sign in
page.)
