Telephone base installation
If you have problems getting the ip8300 installed properly, rst verify that you have the device physically
installed correctly. Then try rebooting the telephone base by unplugging the power and plugging it
back in after few seconds. Some routers require modications to their rewall settings to allow the
ip8300 to access Internet content. In this case, we recommend that you forward TCP port 5060 to
the IP address of the ip8300, or congure it as the DMZ host. To nd the IP address of the ip8300,
check the DHCP log for your router.
For detailed information on checking DHCP logs, setting up port forwarding, or DMZ host conguration,
refer to your router’s documentation or call the manufacturer for help. If you continue to have problems,
refer to the Troubleshooting section on page 92 for additional information relating to setup.
