STEP 4 Connect one end of the blue Ethernet cable to the blue port, labeled "WAN," located on the back of the base unit and connect the other end of the blue cable to the Ethernet port on your cable or DSL modem. STEP 5 Reconnect power cord to the modem then turn the modem on. Please wait until all lights on the modem stop blinking. Helpful Hint: This should take a few minutes, but may take as long as 10 minutes. STEP 6 Plug the power cord into the power port located on the bottom or your IP8100 series telephone and the other end into the electrical outlet. This turns the IP 8100 series broadband telephone on. Helpful Hint: Do NOT interrupt this registration process by unplugging the power or by using the handsets until the READY indicator light on the front of base has gone from flashing yellow to a steady green. Helpful Hint: Use only the power cord provided in this package; using an older power cord can damage the broadband telephone.

Please contact them to update your information; you will likely need your WAN MAC address, which is located on the bottom of the base. Once your ISP has updated your account, proceed to step 9. -- OR -- DSL Users If you have DSL and are required to enter a user name and password (PPPoE) when accessing the Internet, you may be required to authenticate the IP8100 series telephone.
