Hi Louise


That would mean that it is not receiving an IP address from your router. Is it plugged into your router?

Hi, 


I have followed all the steps above, but i cant make or receive any calls. 

My Yealink portal keeps cycling between "registration failed" and registering. My device wont come online in the TMS Login. 



Any assistance here? 


Thanks!

Hi Louise


We created a ticket and are dealing with this through there

Hello Freshman 


Any Thoughts On what else I can try?

Hi Jed, 


Could your firewall be blocking the registration? Make sure you are not blocking the connection.


Then review the steps carefully as you may have mis-entered some of the fields. If you are using hardware previously in use by another provider, Factory reset the device as there may be some kind of configuration halting the new setup connection. 


If after this you still experience any issues, please provide us with more information regarding your setup and infrastructure. 

Hi, 


Thank you, yes, it suddenly started working but pleased with it. 

Thanks for the assistance. 

I have a Yealink W52H with base and an additional handset. All set up. When I attempt to activate the account following your instructions above i complete the details by copying them from my Fresh account but when I hit confirm it indicates register failed 

What could be the reason?  

Just setup the W60B and it worked first time. First time after I read this, that is. My problem was that I did not put the number in all the name blocks.

Thanks for this post.

Hi team, 


We have setup the registration correctly, when we dial into the phone it does not display the "Display name" as the Telkom number, it only shows the VOIP number. 


How do we change the display name? 


Please advise


Kind Regards

Hi Tom,


Thank you. 

maximum of Handsets for one BASE ?

 

Hi Cristinel,


You can register 5 handsets to a base, however, you can only make a maximum of 4 simultaneous calls per base.

Did it stop working out of the blue or was there a change anywhere? internet provider/router etc

Hello Fresh I use to have the ac88 and it worked perfectly. Got Google home and it stopped working Got the ac88 from storage and plugged it back in so I'm theory all should be like it was
