Hello, I just bought PAP2 and wondering how I can wire it so that all lines in the house could get activated.

Thank you

It's rather simple. Make sure the cable from the telephone company is disconnected from the house telephone lines. There is normally a box located on an outside wall of the house where this line connects to the inside wiring - disconnect the line from the telco. Once that is done connect the active line from the PhoneAdapter to a phone wall outlet. If you need a telephone to plug in at the same point, get a line splitter, plug it into the wall outlet, the PA into one side and the phone into the other.

Example of NID

1. Go to your main Telephone box (called NID (Network Interface Device)) which is usually located outside or in basement.

2. Disconnect the main Telco line coming into that box.

3. Connect Vonage adapter into any phone jack in the house.

That's it. Configure Vonage per the instructions.

For instructions on how to disconnect the main Telco line, please open the 'customer side' of the NID and post a picture of it.

**Some older homes don't have a NID. If that's the case, the steps will be slightly different. Post of pic of that if you need to as well.

Unable to locate the box so far. I did find one but it is I think for security system. I will continue to look for it.
