Chapter 1: Introduction

Welcome

Chapter 1: Introduction

Welcome

Thank you for choosing the Linksys Wireless-G IP Phone. It will allow you to make phone calls using your

broadband connection, whether you are at home, in your office, or at a public hotspot.

How does the IP Phone do this? It connects to your wireless router or gateway, so telephone service is delivered

through your cable or DSL Internet connection. You can also surf the Internet with its built-in web browser and

backlit, full-color screen.

But what does all of this mean? Networks are useful tools for sharing Internet access and computer resources.

Your voice calls can share your high-speed Internet connection. You will be able to make phone calls using the

account you set up with your Internet phone service provider, even while you’re surfing the Internet on your

computer. So, networks not only are useful in homes and offices, but also can be fun.

Use the instructions in this User Guide to help you connect the IP Phone after you have set up an account with

your Internet phone service provider. These instructions should be all you need to get the most out of the

Wireless-G IP Phone.
