Overview of the new and updated functions
New functions
uInfo Center: You can use your Gigaset S67H/S68H/C47H handset to retrieve online con-
tent that is provided specifically for the handset from the Internet.
£Page 8
uYou can now also send and receive SMS messages via your VoIP connection. To send
SMS messages via VoIP, you merely have to specify one of your VoIP connections as a
send line for the send service centre.
£Page 12
uYou can display the text of e-mail messages on the handset.
£Page 14
uYou can deactivate your handset's microphone during an external call via the left display
key. In this case, the other party cannot hear you, but you can still hear him/her. Network
functions (e.g. external consultation calls, initiate/end conference call) that can no
longer be accessed via the left display key due to this new function are now provided in
the pop-up menu.
£Page 16
uIf you connect the telephone to a PABX, you can save the PABX access code on your
phone.
£Page 18
uIf you connect your phone to an internal company or organisation network (Intranet),
you can (if necessary) store the address of the internet HTTP proxy server on the base.
Each time the telephone accesses the Internet, this HTTP proxy server is addressed.
£Page 18
uYou can now activate your fixed line connection as an alternative connection. If the tel-
ephone cannot establish a VoIP connection, it automatically attempts to establish a con-
nection via the fixed line network.
£Page 20
uAs before, you can assign a VoIP provider feature to the Skey. Alternatively, you can
use the Skey for transferring calls (call transfer via VoIP).
£Page 21
uDepending on your router's NAT, you can activate/deactivate the STUN server for your
Gigaset.net connection.

Updated/extended functions
uChanges to getting the phone started.
For example, Gigaset.net assistant is only started when you first open the Gigaset.net

uSince several consecutive RTP ports are required for each VoIP connection, you can now
specify a port number range for the RTP ports when configuring the telephone.
£Page 23
uThe signalling of calls made to a number that is not assigned to a handset as a receive
number has changed.
£Page 25
uWhen defining dialling rules, you can use the new option Use Area Codes to specify
whether or not the "automatic area code" is also to be dialled.
£Page 26
uThe key combination for checking the MAC address of the base has changed
£Page 26
New information on troubleshooting/problem analysis
uNew functions (e.g. immediate download of a provider profile) have been added to the
service information that you can use during an external call (e.g. with the Gigaset serv-
ice).
£Page 27
uIf your phone is connected to a NAT router, the NAT can cause problems during VoIP
telephony (especially if you connect multiple VoIP telephones to your router). Notes on
resolving these problems can be found in these amendments.
£Page 28
uThe table of VoIP status codes that you can display on the screen has been extended.
The extended table can be found in these amendments.
£Page 30
Function no longer in use
uWhen dialling, you can no longer select the line type by adding #or *.
