15 VoIP Chapter Chapter 15 C H AP T ER 1 5 15.1 The SIP Account Screen The Router uses a SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) account to make outgoing VoIP calls and check if an incoming call’s destination number matches your SIP account’s SIP number. In order to make or receive a VoIP call, you need to enable and configure a SIP account, and map it to a phone port. The SIP account contains information that allows your Router to connect to your VoIP service provider.
15.1.1 Edit SIP Account You can configure a SIP account. To access this screen, click the Edit icon next to an account.
Table 64 SIP > SIP Account: Edit LABEL DESCRIPTION Enable SIP Account Select the check box to use this account. Clear it to not use this account. SIP Account Number Enter your SIP number. In the full SIP URI, this is the part before the @ symbol. Username Enter the user name for registering this SIP account, exactly as it was given to you. Password Enter the password for registering this SIP account, exactly as it was given to you.
Table 64 SIP > SIP Account: Edit (continued) LABEL DESCRIPTION Active Busy Forward Select this if you want the Router to forward incoming calls to the specified phone number if the phone port is busy.

Table 66 SIP > SIP Service Provider: Edit (continued) LABEL DESCRIPTION PRACK (RFC 3262) RFC 3262 defines a mechanism to provide reliable transmission of SIP provisional response messages, which convey information on the processing progress of the request. This uses the option tag 100rel and the Provisional Response ACKnowledgement (PRACK) method. Select Supported or Required to have the Router include a SIP Require/Supported header field with the option tag 100rel in all INVITE requests.
Table 66 SIP > SIP Service Provider: Edit (continued) LABEL DESCRIPTION T38 Fax Relay Select this if the Router should send fax messages as UDP or TCP/IP packets through IP networks.

Troubleshooting 24 Chapter Chapter 24 C H AP T ER 2 4 24.1 Overview This chapter offers some suggestions to solve problems you might encounter. The potential problems are divided into the following categories. • Power, Hardware Connections, and LEDs • Router Access and Login • Internet Access • Wireless Internet Access • Phone Calls and VoIP 24.2 Power, Hardware Connections, and LEDs The Router does not turn on. None of the LEDs turn on. 1 Make sure the Router is turned on.
5 If the problem continues, contact the vendor. 24.3 Router Access and Login I forgot the IP address for the Router. 1 The default IP address is https://192.168.1.1:8000. 2 If you changed the IP address and have forgotten it, you might get the IP address of the Router by looking up the IP address of the default gateway for your computer. To do this in most Windows computers, click Start > Run, enter cmd, and then enter ipconfig.
Advanced Suggestions • Try to access the Router using another service, such as Telnet. If you can access the Router, check the remote management settings and firewall rules to find out why the Router does not respond to HTTP. • If your computer is connected wirelessly, use a computer that is connected to a LAN port. I can see the Login screen, but I cannot log in to the Router. 1 Make sure you have entered the user name and password correctly.
4 If you are trying to access the Internet wirelessly, make sure you have enabled the wireless LAN by the WPS/WLAN button or the Network Setting > Wireless > General screen. 5 Disconnect all the cables from your device, and follow the directions in Section 1.2 on page 7. again. 6 If the problem continues, contact your ISP. I cannot access the Internet anymore. I had access to the Internet (with the Router), but my Internet connection is not available anymore.
To optimize the speed and quality of your wireless connection, you can: • Move your wireless device closer to the AP if the signal strength is low. • Reduce wireless interference that may be caused by other wireless networks or surrounding wireless electronics such as cordless phones. • Place the AP where there are minimum obstacles (such as walls and ceilings) between the AP and the wireless client.
