PROBLEM

CAUSE

SOLUTION

I have nowhere to
plug in the base
station.

• Your computer or other

equipment may be occupying
the Internet connection port.

• Get a router, allowing you to attach more

units to the same Internet connection port.
If you are buying a new one, we recommend
a peer2peer-friendly router.

I have problems with
my Webtalker.

• You are not using the latest

software.

• There is a problem between

your Webtalker and the device
(modem/router/switch) to
which it is connected.

• Update the software via Settings >

Advanced > Firmware update > Latest
firmware
.

• Restart your modem/router/switch and then

restart the base station by turning the power
off and on.

I cannot sign in to
Skype.

• You are using an incorrect

Skype name and/or password.

• You have no Skype account.

• Your base station is not

connected to the Internet.

• The base station has not been

provided an IP address.

• Check the Skype name and/or password and

try again. Be sure to enter large and small
letters and special characters correctly.

• Create a Skype account via Status > Create

new account.

• Check that all cables are attached correctly.

• Check via Settings > Information that an

IP address is shown under IP address. If not,
check your Internet connection. If you are
using a router, switch or hub, restart the
device(s) and then restart the base station.
Please refer to My base station does not
receive an IP address
under Advanced
troubleshooting.
