Connecting the base to a router (Internet)

Data protection notice
When the device is connected to the router, it automatically contacts the Gigaset support server to make it easier for you to configure the devices and to enable communication with the Internet services.
For this purpose, every device sends the following device-specific information once a day:
u Serial number/item number u MAC address u Private IP address for the Gigaset in the LAN/its port numbers u Device name u Software version
On the support server, this information is linked to the existing device-specific information:
u Gigaset.net phone number u System-related/device-specific passwords
Further information about the Gigaset.net service data saved can be found at: www.gigaset.net/privacy-policy
When you connect the base to a router, your telephone can establish an Internet connection. An Internet connection is required for the following functions:
u Internet telephony VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) u Notification as soon as new software is available for your phone on the Internet u Configuring date and time with a time server on the Internet u Info services and online directories.
For Internet access, you need a router connected to the Internet via a modem (this may be integrated in the router).
You can also connect a PC to the router if you want to set your phone via its Web configurator.
Note
For telephony via the Internet, you need a broadband Internet connection (e.g. DSL) with flat rate (recommended) or volume rate and a router that connects your phone to the Internet. You can find a list of recommended routers on the Internet at:
www.gigaset.com/service From here, go to the FAQ page and select your Gigaset IP telephone. Search for "Router", for

Connection wizard

Use the connection wizard to assign previously configured connections (fixed line network connection, Gigaset.net connection internal participants as receive or, if applicable, as send connections. Internal participants are the registered handsets.
u Receive connections are the phone numbers (connections) on which you can be called.
Incoming calls are only forwarded to the internal participants (end devices) for which the relevant connection is assigned as a receive connection.
u Send connections are the numbers that are sent to the called participant. The network
provider calculates charges based on the send connections. You can assign each internal participant a number or the associated connection as a send connection.
u Each connection (number) of your phone can be both a send as well as a receive connection.
You can assign each connection to several internal participants as a send and/or receive con­nection.
¢ page 35 and the VoIP connections ¢ page 14) to the
Default assignment
All configured connections are assigned as receive connections at registration/start-up. The fixed line network connection is assigned to the handsets as a send connection.
