Introduction
VoiceLine allows you to use your existing phone and broadband Internet
connection to receive calls and make local, long distance, and international calls
– all at incredibly low rates.
Instead of relying on the traditional telephone network, VoiceLine securely
transmits phone calls over the Internet, at rates much lower than traditional
phone companies can offer.
Just follow the simple installation instructions, and when you pick up the phone a
few minutes later, you will hear a dial tone! No need to dial an access number or
an account number. Just make calls all over the world!
This Guide will walk you through the set-up process and explain everything you
need to know to begin using the VoiceLine service.
Package Contents
►1 InnoMedia MTA 3328-2R (Multimedia Terminal Adapter) with
built-in router
►1 12-Volt D/C power adapter
►1 standard telephone wire (RJ-11)
►1 Ethernet network cable (RJ-45)

Installing the InnoMedia MTA 3328-2R
This section provides step-by-step instructions for installing the MTA device and
setting up the IP address of your computer.
NOTE: You will need to use a PC that has an Internet browser
and a network card installed.
Preparing for Installation
Before you begin the installation process, you will need to know the connection
type used by your Internet Service Provider (ISP). The connection type (i.e.,
DHCP, static IP, PPPoE, or MAC address cloning) determines how the device will
communicate with the network. Contact your ISP to determine the connection type
you should configure for the MTA device.
If you have only one PC that will need to access the Internet, your broadband
service provider uses DHCP, and you do not have a separate router, continue to
the next section, Becoming Familiar with the MTA Back Panel.
If your ISP does not use DHCP, or if you currently use a router to share your
broadband connection with multiple PCs or other devices, refer to the
Installation with an External Router section on page 12 of the InnoMedia MTA
3328-2R User’s Guide.

connection (i.e., office network).
5. Plug in the broadband/DSL/cable modem’s power cord.
Wait about two minutes for the modem to initialize.
6. Connect the D/C power adapter (included with the device) to the PWR
port on the back of the MTA, and then plug in the power cord.
Wait several minutes for the device to initialize. It may take up to fifteen
(15) minutes for the device to download the configuration files.
The MTA is ready when the RUN light is steady.
7. Turn on your PC.
Your PC will obtain an IP address from the MTA. Your PC will now
have Internet connectivity.
Figure 2: The MTA Configuration (For DHCP users with a single PC.)
IMPORTANT: After you set up the MTA for the first time, it
may take up to fifteen (15) minutes for the automatic download
of the configuration files to complete. During the download
process, the device’s RUN LED blinks quickly (one second on,
one second off). When the RUN LED stops blinking and
remains steady, the download process is complete -- you will
now hear a dial tone.
For more information on the MTA device’s LED indicators, refer to the MTA LED
STATUS INDICATORS table on the following page.

Placing Calls
Once the MTA is set up and you have dial tone, you will be able to place and
receive calls.
NOTE: If you have set up your MTA, but you do not hear a dial
tone, please refer to the Troubleshooting section of this Guide.
Understanding Local Dial Plans
Each VoiceLine account is assigned a Dial Plan Country. This determines the
numbering scheme you will dial to make calls. For example, if the U.S. is your
Dial Plan Country, you should dial as though you are in the United States, even if
you are in another country.
Making Calls
To make a call, pick up your telephone handset and dial using your telephone
keypad.
NOTE: The PC does not need to be on in order to place calls.
CALLING WITHIN YOUR AREA CODE (USING A U.S. DIAL PLAN)
Dial a local number that is in the same area code as your Primary VoiceLine
telephone number using 7-digit dialing.
Dial the local 7-digit phone number.
For example, if your Primary VoiceLine phone number has a 201 area code and
the local phone number you would like to call is 201-555-9999, dial 5559999.
CALLING WITHIN NORTH AMERICA (USING A U.S. DIAL PLAN)
Dial: 1 + area code + local phone number.
For example, if the area code is 212 and the local number is 555-8888, dial:
12125558888.
CALLING INTERNATIONAL DESTINATIONS (USING A U.S. DIAL PLAN)
Dial: 011 + country code + area code + local phone number.
For example, if the country code is 99, the city code is 77, and the local number
is 555-8888, dial: 01199775558888.
NOTE: Calls outside of the calling plan area are charged a per-
minute rate based on the destination you are calling. Please
login to your Online Account Center for specific rates. For Web
site information, refer to the Managing Your Account at the
Online Account Center section on page 8.
If you are unable to make calls, please refer to the Troubleshooting section on
page 9.in this Guide.

Troubleshooting
TROUBLESHOOTING
Symptom: The RUN LED is blinking slowly.
Corrective Action:
►Reboot the device by unplugging the power cord and then
plugging it back in.
►Verify that the device obtained an IP address by picking up the
connected telephone’s handset and pressing ***1 on the keypad.
If it announces “0.0.0.0” as the IP address, the device did not get
an IP address. Contact your ISP.
►Verify also that your ISP uses DHCP and that there is no network
service outage.
Symptom: There is no dial tone.
Corrective Action:
After you set up the MTA for the first time, it may take up to 15 minutes
to download the configuration files onto the device. During this
download process, the MTA’s RUN LED blinks quickly (1 second on, 1
second off). When the RUN LED stops blinking and remains steady,
the download process is complete – you will now hear a dial tone.
If it has been over 15 minutes since you set up the MTA and you still do
not hear a dial tone:
►Verify that your phone is connected to the correct port on the MTA.
►Verify that the device obtained an IP address by picking up the
connected telephone’s handset and pressing ***1 on the keypad. If
it announces “0.0.0.0” as the IP address, the device did not get an
IP address. Contact your Internet Service Provider.
►Verify that your broadband connection is functioning properly by
attempting to connect to a Web site from a PC on the same
network.
►Try connecting another phone (one that you are certain works
properly) to see if the phone you are using is faulty.

Troubleshooting (continued)
TROUBLESHOOTING
Symptom: I hear a fast busy signal when I try to make a call.
Corrective Action:
►Make sure you are dialing according to the Dial Plan Country
assigned to your account. (The Dial Plan Country was assigned
when the account was created.) For example, if your Dial Plan
Country is the U.S., you should dial in the U.S. format:
1 + area code + phone number
NOTE: If the “1” prefix is omitted, the call will not go through.
►Verify that your broadband connection is functioning properly by
attempting to connect to a Web site from a PC on the same
network.
►Verify that the device obtained an IP address by picking up the
connected telephone’s handset and pressing ***1 on the keypad.
If it announces “0.0.0.0” as the IP address, the device did not get
an IP address. Contact your Internet Service Provider.
Symptom: The phone connection is poor.
Corrective Action:
►Try connecting another phone (one that you are certain works
properly) to see if the phone you are using is faulty.
►Adjust your device’s call quality settings via the Manage Device
section of your Online Account Center.

FAQs
WHAT IS “BROADBAND”?
A broadband Internet connection is a cable modem, DSL, LAN, T1, T3, LAN,
WAN, or any other high-speed “always on” connection. If you have to dial
up to an access number to reach the Internet then you do not have
broadband. A broadband Internet connection is required to use the
VoiceLine service.
DO I NEED A BROADBAND ROUTER?
No. The MTA telephone adapter has a built-in router that allows you to
connect one PC to it to access the Internet. You would only need a separate
router if you wanted to connect more than one PC.
CAN I USE A CORDLESS PHONE?
Yes. Any standard phone will work with VoiceLine. Feel free to plug in your
cordless phone and walk around your house while you talk.
CAN I TAKE VOICELINE WITH ME WHEN I TRAVEL?
Yes. Your VoiceLine service travels with you. When someone calls your
phone number, your phone simply rings wherever you have your telephone
and adapter plugged into a broadband Internet connection -- whether you
are home or traveling somewhere else in the world.
CAN I CALL LOCATIONS THAT ARE NOT IN MY CALLING PLAN?
Yes. You can make calls to any location not included in your monthly calling
plan. These calls are considered out-of-plan and are charged a per-minute
rate based on the country you are calling. Please refer to your Online
Account Center.
HOW DO I LOGIN TO THE MTA WEB MANAGEMENT TOOL?
The MTA Web Management tool can be used to review the device’s settings
and configure features. From a PC connected to the MTA’s LAN port, open
a Web browser, and, in the Address text box, enter 192.168.99.1. Press
the Enter key to access the login page. Enter the user ID admin and the
password n2p, and then click the OK button.
CAN I SEND AND RECEIVE FAXES WITH VOICELINE?
Yes. You can connect your fax machine to the InnoMedia MTA 3328-2R
telephone adapter to send and receive faxes. You do not need to change
any settings on the telephone adapter.”
Fax is only available through the InnoMedia MTA 3328-2R
telephone adapter with built-in router. The InnoMedia MTA 3328-2
