Model 28310 2 in 1 - Skype Internet & Standard Phone User’s Guide Quick Guide on pages 12-19 can be used with the internet or as a traditional landline telephone Introduction Your GE/Skype phone may change the way you think about using your telephone, and using Skype. You can use your GE/Skype phone to make and receive both landline and Skype calls. And, because Skype is built into your GE/Skype phone, you no longer need a computer to use Skype. In order to use your GE/Skype phone for Skype calls, the base station must be linked up with an active Internet connection. If you already have a computer linked up to your Internet connection, this device might occupy the connection port that is needed by the GE/Skype phone base station. In this case you need a router, allowing you to attach more devices to your Internet connection. Attach the router to the Internet connection and connect your computer and the base station to the router. Should you have any questions regarding the use of the Internet and the router please contact your Internet provider. Please note: When installing a new router you should be aware that it might take some time – up to one hour – before it is properly registered with your Internet provider. To use Skype telephony via your GE/Skype phone you need a Skype account as well as a user name and a password. Please refer to the Getting started with Skype section. With Skype you call for free when talking to other Skype users – and you can buy a number of additional features to expand the possibilities of your GE/Skype phone. Please refer to the Skype services section. Equipment Approval Information Your telephone equipment is approved for connection to the Public Switched Telephone Network and is in compliance with parts 15 and 68, FCC Rules and Regulations and the Technical Requirements for Telephone Terminal Equipment published by ACTA. 1 Notification to the Local Telephone Company On the bottom of this equipment is a label indicating, among other information, the US number and Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) for the equipment.

The REN is useful in determining the number of devices you may connect to your telephone line and still have all of these devices ring when your telephone number is called. In most (but not all) areas, the sum of the RENs of all devices connected to one line should not exceed 5. To be certain of the number of devices you may connect to your line as determined by the REN, you should contact your local telephone company. A plug and jack used to connect this equipment to the premises wiring and telephone network must comply with the applicable FCC Part 68 rules and requirements adopted by the ACTA.
