Configuring the HandyTone 802
These instructions are based on HandyTone 802 software version 1.0.3.2 if you are running a different software version some menus and settings may be different.
These instructions are also based on using the HandyTone in its factory default configuration, which obtains a dynamic IP address automatically from your router using DHCP. For information on configuring your HandyTone with a Static IP Address, please refer to the HandyTone user´s manual.
Each step is important in assuring that your device works properly.
We recommend that you read each step through in its entirety before performing the action indicated in the step.
Plugging the HT802
Connect your HandyTone to your router with the supplied Ethernet network cable.
Now connect your phone to the HandyTone. Plugging the cable into the correct FXS Port that you configure.
Finally plug the supplied power cable into the HandyTone.
Getting IP address for the GUI
Wait 60 seconds after plugging your HT802 in. Pick up the phone connected to the HT802 and dial *** on it.
Please have a pen and paper ready. You will hear a message - "Enter a menu option", then enter 0 2 on your phone. You will now hear a message giving you the IP address of your HT802 such as - "192.168.001.010" and write this number down.
Open a web browser on your computer such as Chrome or Firefox and enter the IP address you heard in step 4 as the address (I.E. where you would normally enter www.voip.ms).
Please note: Some browsers will require you to remove leading zero's ( 0 's ) in the IP address. For example if you heard "192.168.001.010" you should change this to "192.168.1.10".
The Interface has a timeout so please make changes quickly or save/update your settings every couple of minutes.
Loging into the device

Enter the password for the HT802 in the password field. The default administrator password for the HT802 is admin

That's it! You can now make a phone call.

Preventing Direct IP calls like 100 & 1000
To Prevent Direct IP calls to your device and only allow calls from our service please enable the following 2 options in your FXS Port Configuration Page.
Check SIP User ID for incoming INVITE - Default is No. Check the incoming SIP User ID in Request URI. If they don’t match, the call will be rejected. If this option is enabled, the device will not be able to make direct IP calls.
Allow Incoming SIP Messages from SIP Proxy Only - Default is No. Check the incoming SIP messages. If they don’t come from the SIP proxy, they will be rejected. If this option is enabled, the device will not be able to make direct IP calls.
Auto Provisioning
