How to enable Voice over IP on your
network
For
ALL
Do I need to configure Voice over IP? VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) is a
technology for using the Internet as an interface for telephone communications.
To use VoIP, you need to get an account with a VoIP service provider. The VoIP
service provider typically provides you with a telephone adapter (TA) that
connects to your network. If you do not use your network to make phone calls,
you don't need to change the default settings.
The SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) ALG (Application Layer Gateway) feature
allows SIP packets, used by some VOIP service providers, to traverse (go
through) your router's firewall.
To configure the router for VoIP:
Administration > Management
1. Log into the browser-based utility (see "How to open the browser-based
utility" on page 20).
2. Click the Administration tab, then click the Management page.
3. If your VoIP service uses SIP, select Enabled next to SIP ALG.
– OR –
If your VoIP service uses other NAT traversal solutions such as STUN
(Session Traversal Utilities for NAT), TURN (Traversal Using Relay NAT), or
ICE (Interactive Connectivity Establishment), select Disabled (default).
NoTE
You may need to contact your VoIP service provider to determine
the type of NAT traversal configuration they use.
How to configure UPnP
For
ALL
What is UPnP? UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) allows devices connected
to a network to discover each other and automatically create working
configurations. Examples of UPnP-capable devices include web cameras,
online gaming applications, and VoIP devices. UPnP is enabled by default.
To configure UPnP:
Administration > Management
1. Log into the browser-based utility (see "How to open the browser-based
utility" on page 20).
2. Click the Administration tab, then click the Management page.
3. To use UPnP, select Enabled (default) next to UPnP. Otherwise, select
Disabled.
4. To allow changing router settings while using UPnP, select Enabled
(default) next to Allow Users to Configure. Otherwise, select Disabled.
5. To prevent local network users from disabling your Internet connection
through UPnP, select Disabled (default) next to Allow Users to Disable
Internet Access. Otherwise, select Enabled.
