Look through the IP addresses your router has assigned to your devices. (it should look like 192.168.xxx.xxx) Figure out which address belongs to the Freetalk adapter. Type that address in your browser's address bar. That should take you to the Freetalk login screen, where you enter you Skype account user name and password.

That seems to me more a problem with Skype then with your freefalk . Make sure you are logged in correctly, and that you either have a Skype subscription it Skype credit.

Hi, Check your firewall settings for Windows and any antivirus product you may have. I have Win 7, and it connected and worked from the get-go. Good luck.

Talk n text should work - but nothing else as the support servers were turned off by Microsoft some years ago.

I have the same issues too....I think I am just going to return it...have gone round and round with customer service "online chat" and that was totally pointless....really a shame...but not worth the time spent to get it to work, finally got past the update software phase and now it can't connect to anything yet per the stats I have an "excellent" signal.

Same keeps happening to me. I keep trying to call the number on the box but I'm just getting the busy signal. I'm waiting to see if they can help me. If not, I'm returning it.

Yes! In fact, I can't make it work now. Am going to go on their site and see what help they can be...did you get this resolved?

Thanks to you all for your help. I did set up voicemail but it is not working. But I'll try the trick from Jen--I'm desperate for help! The link to the manual is very kind, too. I still can't set use my NY Times subscription (the Droid app just fails and fails). Can't sign in to my Google stuff--the qwerty board refuses to appear when I'm asked for my password. Big sigh. At least I can phone out. Again, thanks to the community!

I just purchased this phone and it is doing the same thing. It worked for 5 minutes after we charged and then it went into the System is Starting mode and will not connect to Skype. If we reset the batteries, it will connect to Skype, then disconnect after 5 minutes. We have the latest firmware version and can't figure out what the problem is. I've emailed Philips, but if we cannot figure out the problem, we'll have to send it back. I really hope it doesn't come to that because I really want it to work!

Skype is a well know VOIP system that works through both PC and MacIntosh. FreeTalk is a hardware component that eliminates the computer & connects your telephone directly to the Internet. -- However, you will need temporary access to a computer to set up a Freetalk account. Also, my version of FreeTalk needs an Ethernet connection. I'm not aware of a WiFi version. -- I've left my primary homefone active, with calls forwarded to my Google Voice account. Google Voice then rings all the family's cellphones. FreeTalk is just enrolled as an additional cellphone.

I had the same problem. I was able to connect it to my router and to my phone via tethering. The module worked ok only for 6 hours and then stopped working. After a reboot to the system, the control panel continuously rebooted with an error message until the module was removed. Since I had another control panel with the same module that worked OK, I have filed a claim to return the item as I consider it defective. I will get another one.

You need a IP connection with SIP protocol. This is not a regular land line

From reading your problem, after it is installed you need to go into the device manager , remove all the Bluetooth devices that have and exclamation mark or question mark, then restart your computer and you should be fine. If you are trying to connect a Bluetooth headset make sure that it supports ad2p

Actually, I had the same issue. I was unable to get a clean connection and gave up. I was hoping for similar help.

I am not sure. What I am sure of is that no one can hear me when I talk. I have attempted to Contact them several times with no answer
