Troubleshooting
I subscribe to a nontraditional telephone service that uses my
computer to establish connections, and my telephone doesn’t work.
Make sure your computer is powered on.
Make sure your Internet connection is working properly.
Make sure that the software is installed and running for your nontraditional
telephone service.
Make sure to plug your USB telephone adapter into a dedicated USB port on
your computer. Do not plug into a multiple port USB hub (USB splitter) that is
not powered.
In a few rare instances, the USB port on your computer may not have enough
power. In these instances, try using a USB hub with its own external power supply.
If you are using a firewall, it may prevent access to your nontraditional telephone
service. Contact your service provider for more information.
Common cure for electronic equipment.
If the telephone is not responding normally, put the cordless handset in the
telephone base. If it does not fix the problem, try the following (in the order listed):
Disconnect the power to the telephone base.
Disconnect the battery on the cordless handset.
Wait a few minutes before connecting power to the telephone base.
Install the battery again and place the cordless handset in the telephone base.
Wait for the cordless handset to synchronize with the telephone base. Allow
up to one minute for this to take place.
