Configuring the Gigaset.net connection
Your phone is assigned a Gigaset.net phone number by default. As soon as you
have connected your phone to the Internet, you can make calls using the
Gigaset.net and receive calls from other Gigaset.net subscribers, provided that
your Gigaset.net connection has been activated. You can deactivate the
Gigaset.net connection.
Activating/deactivating the Gigaset.net connection
¤ Open the following Web page:
Settings ¢ Telephony ¢ Connections. The list
of connections is displayed (£ Figure 2 on Page 154).
¤ In the
Gigaset.net area: use the option in the Active column to activate ( )
or deactivate ( ) the Gigaset.net connection.
Activating/deactivating the STUN server of the Gigaset.net connection
The Gigaset.net connection is preconfigured in your phone. The Gigaset.net
uses a STUN server as standard. In the sent data packets, Gigaset.net replaces
the private IP address of your phone with its public IP address.
If you operate your phone behind a router with symmetrical NAT, STUN cannot
be used. Otherwise, when making Gigaset.net calls you will not be able to hear
the caller.
In this case, deactivate STUN for the Gigaset.net connection.
¤ Open the following Web page:
Settings ¢ Telephony ¢ Connections.
¤ Select
Edit in the Gigaset.net area.
STUN enabled
Click No to deactivate STUN.
Select Yes if you want your phone to use STUN.
¤ Select Set to save the changes.
Optimizing voice quality for VoIP connections
You can make general and connection-specific settings to improve the voice
quality for VoIP telephony.
¤ Open the following Web page:
Settings ¢ Telephony ¢ Audio.
The voice quality for VoIP connections is mainly determined by the voice codec
used for transferring the data and the available bandwidth of your DSL con-
nection.
Please note
If you do not use your Gigaset.net connection for six weeks, it is automatically
deactivated. You cannot be reached for calls from Gigaset.net.
The connection is reactivated:
u As soon as you start a search in the Gigaset.net directory (£
Page 56) or
u Make a call via Gigaset.net, i.e. dial a number ending in #9 (two attempts
may be necessary) or
u Activate the connection via the Web configurator as described above.
