==Configuration Detail==

'''STEP 1''' - Connect your router with the supplied Ethernet network cable to the HandyTone. Now connect your phone to the HandyTone. Finally plug the supplied power cable into the HandyTone.

'''STEP 2''' - Wait 60 seconds after plugging your HandyTone in.

'''STEP 3''' - Pick up the phone connected to the HandyTone and dial the * key on your phone 3 times.

'''STEP 4''' - 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 HandyTone such as - "192.168.001.010" write this number down.

'''STEP 5''' - Open a web browser on your computer such as Internet Explorer and enter the IP address you heard in step 4 as the address (I.E. where you would normally enter www.yahoo.com).
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".

'''STEP 6''' - You should now see a page that looks like this:

'''Step 9''' - Click on '''Account 1''' to configure your first line. 

'''Step 10''' - Fill the followings fields.

* '''SIP Server:'''  atlanta.voip.ms (or use one of our multiple servers) 
* '''SIP User ID:''' 100000 (Your VoIP.ms username)
* '''Authenticate Password:''' ********* (Account Password)
* '''User ID is phone number:''' No 
* '''SIP Registration:''' Yes 
* '''Register Expiration:''' 180
* '''NAT transversal :''' No
** '''Notes''': NAT transversal can be set to '''Yes''' if you are behind a router (even if you do not set a value in the STUN server field). Indeed according to the reference guide, with no specified STUN server, then the phone will only periodically (every 20 seconds by default) send a blank UDP packet (with no payload data) to the SIP server to keep the mapped port open on the NAT.
* '''Home NPA''': Empty (Some tests show that this field should be kept empty or you will encountered difficulties with some numbers ending with a busy signal [tested with 418 in home NPA, and a 1-877 number] )


===Message Waiting Indicator===

To enable this feature with your Grandstream HandyTone 286 you need to associate a [[Voicemail|voicemail]] with the account (or subaccount) you have registered in the device and set the '''SUBSCRIBE for MWI''' option to '''YES'''.
