The UIP1868P can function as your primary gateway/router or as a device
client within an existing network configuration.
If you currently have broadband access and a gateway/router installed at
your location, you may add the UIP1868P as a device client to your
network. (See “A” below.) If you currently have broadband internet access
and do not have a router, you may install your UIP1868P as the primary
router to your network. (See “B” below.)

The UIP1868P supports the two most common broadband connection
protocols: DHCP (most common connection type found with Cable
Modem) and PPPoE (most DSL providers use this connection type).
Page 2
1 Setting up with DHCP
The UIP1868P is configured for use with Dynamic Host Configuration
Protocol (DHCP) by default. If your broadband connection uses DHCP,
simply connect your broadband modem to the WAN port of the
phone and then connect the phone’s power cord to an AC power
outlet.
2 Setting up with PPPoE
If your broadband connection uses PPPoE, you will need to configure
the UIP1868P built-in router by inputting the user name and password
provided by your Internet Service Provider. Follow the steps below to
configure the UIP1868P to use a PPPoE-based connection.
a) Connect a
computer with a
web browser
directly to the LAN
Figure #1
port of your UIP1868P.
b) Type http://192.168.15.1
(the default IP address of
your UIP1868P) into the
address bar of your web
browser. Then press the
Enter key. (See Figure #1)
c) You should now see your

f) Under ENABLE PPPOE, click the drop-down arrow and
select YES.
g) Under Authentication, enter the USERNAME and PASSWORD
that were provided by your ISP. Username and password are
often case-sensitive, so be sure to enter upper and lower case
letters correctly.
h) Under Settings, select the radio button labeled KEEPALIVE. This
configures the phone to maintain the PPPoE connection even
when your computer is idle or turned off.
i) When the utility displays a window telling you it must reboot
the phone, make sure your broadband modem is connected to
your phone's WAN port, then click
OK. When the phone finishes
rebooting, it will ask your
broadband modem to assign an IP
address. (See Figure #4)
NOTE: For detailed installation with PPPoE, please refer to UIP1868P User Interface Guide – Setting
up with PPPoE section.

C Setting up with a Static IP Address
If your broadband provider has given you a static IP address, you will need
to enter that information in the UIP1868P. Follow the steps below to
configure the UIP1868P for use with a Static IP address.
Connect a computer with a web browser directly to the LAN port of
your UIP1868P.
Type http://192.168.15.1.
(the default IP address of
your UIP1868P) into the
address bar of your web
