Setup a Yealink T48 Phone
If you are a new TelephoneSystems.cloud customer and you got the phone through us, the phone should already be pre-configured. Just plug it in. If the phone came with a power supply then connect the power and the network cable. If your business runs power-over-ethernet (PoE) then the Yealink phone can get it's power from the network cable and a seperate power supply is not needed. Sometimes you only have a single network cable socket and your computer is already using it. In this case you can "pass-through" the network connection by connecting your phone to the network, then connect a network cable from your PC to the "PC" socket on the back of the phone. This way both your phone and PC will share the same connection to the wall.
Provisioning a Yealink T48
If you are a new TelephoneSystems.cloud customer and you got the phone through us, the phone should already be pre-configured. Just plug it in. However, if you have a refurbished phone that was used by another provider you will need to configure it to download it's settings from our system. This process is called "provisioning". Follow these steps to provisio. Follow these steps to configure a Yealink T46G, Yealink T48S or Yealink T48U:
Long press the OK button
Press OK again when it asks to reset
Get the IPv4 address from the screen on the phone (Menu->Status)
Open a web browser and enter the IPv4 address of the phone
Default login for a Yealink T46S is username admin, password admin
Go to Advanced, then Auto Provision
Enter the following provisioning server url: https://dm.yourwhc.co.uk/dms/phone
The phone will reboot a couple of times and then it should be ready.
