# Troubleshooting your Voiply Adapter

## A step-by-step guide on how to troubleshoot your Voiply System

If you are having issues making or receiving phone calls, have no dial tone, don't see all 3 blue lights on your Voiply Adapter lit, or receive a message that the device is not registered, here are some steps to get you up and running again:

### Step 1: Try a simple reboot of the adapter

Simply unplug the adapter from power, count to 5, then plug it back into power. Be sure that all cables are securely connected:

- **Ethernet cable** is plugged into a router via a cable in the blue port.
- **The telephone** is plugged into the adapter in the green port.

### Step 2: Perform a factory reset of the adapter ([Factory Reset Steps](https://kb.voiply.com/factory-reset-voiply-adapter))

If a reboot does not resolve the issue, perform a factory reset:

1. With the Voiply Adapter powered on, unplug the **blue Ethernet cable** from the Internet port.
2. Locate the **reset button** on your Voiply Adapter (usually a small pinhole).
3. Use a paperclip or similar object to press and hold the button for **10 seconds**.
4. Release the button, and the adapter will reboot and restore factory settings.
5. After the reset is complete, reconnect the **blue Ethernet cable** to the Internet port and wait a few minutes for the adapter to reconnect to the network.

Check the lights on the adapter to confirm the proper connection.

### Step 3: Check if the phone is getting an IP address from your network 💻🔌❓

You can find the IP by following these steps 📖:

1. Use a telephone connected to the phone port of your Voiply Adapter.
2. Press the **star key (\*) three times** to access the IVR menu and wait until you hear “Enter the menu option.”
3. Press **02** and the current IP address will be announced.

You should hear an address that **doesn't start with 0 or 169**.

If the phone is not getting an IP address:

- Ensure the **Ethernet cable** is plugged into the **LAN port** of your Voiply Adapter.
- The other end should be plugged into one of the **ports 1-4** on your router/switch/modem.

Step 4: Check for possible issues with your home network

Run our **speed test** and **SIP ALG test** to confirm there are no network issues:

- [Speed Test](https://www.voiply.com/speedtest)
- [SIP ALG Test](https://kb.voiply.com/hubfs/sip-alg-detector.exe)

If **SIP ALG is detected**, please follow this article to disable it on your network modem/router: [How To Disable SIP ALG](https://kb.voiply.com/how-to-disable-sip-alg-for-voiply-home-users).

If the issue persists, contact **Voiply Support** for further assistance. You can reach Voiply Support by visiting our support page: [How Do I Contact Voiply's Support?](https://kb.voiply.com/how-do-i-contact-voiplys-support)
