Installation
Base Set-Up
The base needs a direct access connection to the 
internet, and the IP address of the base must be 
provided by a DHCP server.
CAUTION: To reduce risk 
of personal injury, fire, or 
damage use only the  
-22 power adaptor 
listed in the user’s guide. 
This power adaptor is 
intended to be correctly 
orientated in a vertical or 
floor mount position. 
IMPORTANT: Do not 
connect the telephone 
line until the handset is 
fully charged. The base 
must be plugged into the 
AC power at all times.
INSTALLATION NOTE:  
Your InfoLink is designed 
for home use and will 
work with most any 
standard Internet system 
(non-commercial, non-
corporate environments/
applications). This includes 
wired and/or wireless 
routers which provide 
additional “hard” Firewall 
security functionality (HTTP 
Internet traffic transmits 
inbound and outbound via 
Port 80, which is typically 
open on most firewall set 
ups). However, this unit 
may not function properly 
behind a firewall that 
does not allow http traffic 
inbound and outbound on 
Port 80. 
The unit will not work 
with a dial-up internet 
connection.
ETHERNET Connection
1.  Using the ETHERNET cable (RJ45 ) provided with 
your phone, connect the cable to your broadband 
modem or router with cable access.
2.  Connect the other end of the cable to the base 
ETHERNET port.
Telephone Cable Connection
To use the phone as standard telephone:
1.  Plug one end of the telephone line cord into the 
PHONE jack on the back of the base and the other 
end into a modular jack.
