Step 2

Locate your Internet connection by following the Ethernet line that comes into your home from the outside and plugs into the Motorola Antenna Power Supply (it may be located near your computer or in your basement). Locate the Ethernet plug on the power supply and disconnect it from your computer or router. It’s usually a flat black cable.

Step 3

Insert the rounded plug into the power jack on the adapter, and plug the other end into an always-on power source.

Step 4

Take the Ethernet plug you unplugged in Step 2 that was attached to your computer or router, and plug it into the blue jack labeled “Internet.”

Step 5

Take the Ethernet cable that was included in the Linksys Phone Adapter box and plug it into the yellow jack labeled “Ethernet.” Plug the other end of the Ethernet cable into the same location on your computer or router from which you unplugged the Ethernet cable in step 2.

Step 6

Plug a single phone into the Linksys Phone Adapter jack labeled “Phone 1” (the outer jack).

WARNING: Do not plug a phone cord from a wall jack into the phone adapter at this time as it may damage the adapter. The “Whole Home Installation” will be explained beginning with Step 9.

Step 7

Turn the Phone Adapter so that you can see the lights. The first three lights should come on in sequence.

Light 1 is the power light and should become solid green.

Light 2 will flash as Internet traffic passes through the device.

Light 3 indicates dial tone is available from the “Phone 1” jack and should become solid green within 30-60 seconds. It will flash when a phone is in use (off-hook).

Step 8

Test your connection by picking up the phone. You should now hear a dial tone. If you will be using a single phone plugged into the Digis Phone Adapter, you can now skip to page 11, “Feature Setup and Use.” However, if you have phones throughout your home that you would like to connect to the Digis Phone Service, please proceed to Step 9 which covers “Whole Home Installation.”

Step 9

Whole Home Installation: If you wish to use all the phones in your home on the Digis Phone Service, it is imperative that you disconnect the landline of your existing phone carrier from your home wiring.

If you have ported your number, wait until you are notified via email that your port has completed before proceeding. Otherwise continue with the following steps.

Step 10

To disconnect your home from your landline phone provider, locate the telephone network interface unit on the outside of your house. This is usually located near the cable and power boxes. Most units will look like this box, but may vary depending on the age of the home. Using a screwdriver, open the box.

Step 11

Interface Type 1: Locate all the RJ-11 telephone plugs in the box. These are the clear plugs that look like a standard telephone plug in your home.

or

Step 11

Interface Type 2: Newer homes will often have a different style phone interface. Locate the latch(es) that that are labeled “cover release.”

Step 12

Interface Type 1: Unplug all the RJ-11 telephone plugs in the box. This will disconnect the phone company’s lines from your home. Close and secure the cover door.

Step 12

Interface Type 2: Pull the latch(es) forward to open the cover release mechanism. This disconnects the jack from your outside phone line(s). Close and secure the cover door making sure the latch(es) remain disconnected.

Step 13

Now you can plug into your home phone network. Take a standard phone wire and plug one end into the “Phone 1” jack; plug the other end into a previously active home phone wall jack.
