13.5 Checking the ZyXEL Device’s IP Address

Do the following to listen to the ZyXEL Device’s current IP address.

1Pick up your phone’s receiver.

2Press “****” on your phone’s keypad and wait for the message that says you are in the configuration menu.

3Press “5” followed by the # key.

4Listen to the IP address and make a note of it.

5Hang up the receiver.

13.6Auto Provisioning and Auto Firmware Upgrade

If your service provider uses an auto-provisioning server to set up your device, you must first enter the HTTP pincode (supplied by your service provider). This authenticates your ZyXEL Device with the auto provisioning server, allowing you to use the service.

On a phone connected to the device, enter “*99**”, your SIP number, “*”, the HTTP pincode you were given, then “#”.

For example, if your SIP number is 0123456 and the HTTP pincode you were given is 9876, you would enter “*99**0123456*9876#”.

During auto-provisioning, the ZyXEL Device checks to see if there is a newer firmware version (if your service provider activates this feature). If newer firmware is available, the ZyXEL Device plays a recording when you pick up your phone’s handset.

Press “*99#” to upgrade the ZyXEL Device’s firmware.

Press “#99#” to not upgrade the ZyXEL Device’s firmware.
