Welcome

Thank you for choosing the Linksys Phone Adapter with 2 Ports for Voice-over-IP. This Phone Adapter will allow
you to make phone or fax calls using the your broadband connection.
How does the Phone Adapter do this? The Phone Adapter connects your phones or fax machines to your
network router or gateway, so telephone service is delivered through your cable or DSL Internet connection.
Each of the Phone Adapter's two telephone jacks operates independently, with separate phone service and
phone numbers, so you can have up to two Vonage phone lines per Adapter. You will be able to make phone
calls using the account you set up with Vonage, even while you're surfing the Internet.
Use the instructions in the Quick Installation or this Installation and Troubleshooting Guide to help you connect
the Phone Adapter after you have set up an account with Vonage. These instructions should be all you need to
get the most out of the Phone Adapter.
