Prerequisites
Before you start, you need to know your VoIP username, password and the server that your number is connected to. You can do this from your Soho66 account, by clicking My Soho, then "Your Numbers", then the telephone number that you wish to connect to. The VoIP username and VoIP password are near the bottom of the page, in a section entitled VoIP Settings.
Step 1: Locating the IP Address of your Device
Plug the Ethernet cable into the LAN port on the device and the other end into your Broadband router/Network switch and obtain the phone's IP address as follows:
Newer Grandstreams (GXP2130/2140/2160)
- Press the UP and it will show the IP address of your device, something like 192.168.1.15.
Older Grandstreams (GXP1400/1405, GXP2100, GXP2120/2124)
- Press MENU (circle key inbetween the 4 arrows), select STATUS and then NETWORK STATUS and look for IPv4. The phone's IP address should appear on the phone's screen, something like 192.168.1.15. Type the IP address into a web browser's address bar on your PC/Mac. Should this be correct, it will show you the login screen for your device as shown below.
