Getting Started
The phone requires a wireless connection to a Wi-Fi access point
in order to make Skype calls.
You can configure the phone to connect to specific wireless networks or
search for “open” networks. Wireless-network information is stored in the
phone’s memory as “Preferred Networks”. These are searched for each time
the phone is powered on.
When powering on the phone for the first time, there are no Preferred
Networks in the phone’s memory. You need to select a wireless network
and sign in to your Skype account before you can start making calls.
You must complete the following steps the first time you use your phone.
1. Select a language.
2. Read and accept the Skype Agreement.
Be sure to scroll down and read the entire agreement
