Steps

  1. Go out to your demarcation point on the side of your house where your house connects to your local phone company, and disconnect the incoming phone line from the network. This will isolate your in-house phone line from the phone company and protect your VoIP adapter from damage. Complete instructions for doing this can be found at Resources for Resources for Michigan Telephone Users - How to Distribute VoIP Throughout a Home
  2. Plug one end of a RJ-11 phone wire into the phone port of the VoIP adapter and the other end into the telephone wall outlet. This will activate all your existing home phone wiring on the VOIP phone service.

Tips

  • Remember that you will lose your VoIP phone service when your broadband service goes out. You will also lose your VoIP service when the power goes out, unless you have your modem, router, and VoIP adapter connected to a good Uninterruptable Power Supply, which will extend the time that your service will operate during a power outage.
  • Activate the VOIP phone service with one phone connected to the phone adapter before you try to connect it to your home wiring.

Warnings

  • Do Not try connecting a Phone adapter to a live phone jack without disconnecting the demarcation point. This will overload your phone adapter and then you would have to replace it.
  • Most VOIP companies have Terms of Service wording that releases them from liability for basically anything. This includes service outages and damaged equipment. Use at your own risk.
