Yealink T31P Setup Guide

Before we get started, make sure that your router and Yealink device are connected via Ethernet cable, through the INTERNET port and that they are powered on.

After switching the Yealink device on, please wait about 60 seconds for it to boot up. Press the OK button and take note of the IPv4 address. If connected to a Cool Ideas TP Link router, the IP address will be something like 192.168.0.XXX (the X's being replaced by a number from 2 - 254). 

Take the the following steps in order to configure your Yealink T31P device:

1. Open the browser on your computer and navigate to the Yealink device's IP address (please see above if you don't have it).
2. Log in by using the default username and password (we'll change this later in the guide):
   
   Username: admin
   Password: admin
   
   
3. After logging in, you'll be presented with the Status page.
4. Click on the Account tab at the top of the page.
   
   
   
   
5. Enter the details given to you by our VOIP or Support department (if you do not have these details, please be sure to mail us here from the account holder's email address to request those details).

17. Click on the Security tab and (if not selected automatically) Password.
18. Insert the 'admin' password in the Old Password field.
19. Insert your new password in New Password and Confirm Password fields. (Be sure to create a strong password that you will remember)
