Advanced

Internet Settings

You can configure settings such as IP mode, IP address, Skype proxy and Firmware proxy. However, if you have an advanced Internet connection and are not familiar with firewalls and ports, we recommend that you consult someone with knowledge on this or read more on the topic at www.skype.com.

In IP mode you can choose Dynamic or Static. The default setting of your GE/Skype phone is dynamic IP mode which covers the needs of most users.

Should you wish to attach the base station to an Internet connection using the static IP mode instead, this is how to configure this mode:

1.From the idle screen, press to enter the main menu.

2.Press and to select Settings.

3.Press and to select Advanced.

4.Press and to select Internet settings.

5.Press to select IP mode.

6.Press and to select Static.

7.An Install Wizard will guide you through the configuration.
