D-Link VTA for Freephoneline

This page discusses the VoIP settings for the D-Link VTA VoIP router. For all the other settings, please consult the user manual available here. The guide applies to all the versions of the D-Link VTA (VTA-VR, VTA-CV, VTA-VD).

Before you start configuring the adapter, make sure you have the following settings for your SIP account:
- SIP Server address (sometimes called SIP Proxy)
- SIP User ID (in most cases this is the phone number)
- The password for the SIP account
To obtain these settings, you must contact Freephoneline and ask for your configuration file. There's a one time charge for this, currently $50 CAD + tax. They will send you a Word document with the settings.

Connect all the cables: power cord, an Ethernet cable to your router and a phone into the green Phone 1 port. Wait about a minute for the router to power up, then check your router's DHCP table to find the IP address assigned to the ATA (see some samples for different router brands here). Put that IP address in a browser and login with username Admin and blank password.

In the e-mail you will find your phone number, the password and the domain (the SIP server).

Unlocking Vonage DLINK VTA-VR





A while back (2006, most likely), I purchased several D-link Vonage locked ATAs, with the intention to try VOIP. They were cheap ($9.99) and figured that if I find that I do not like Vonage, I will unlock them somehow and use them with another provider. Though I have decided that I do not like Vonage, I was unable to unlock and abandoned the project. Now that I have a working VOIP setup, I decided to give unlocking one more try.

Setting up Vonage D-Link VTA-VR

This guide will help you setup your D-Link Broadband Telephone Adapter
(VTA-VR) from Vonage using Smart Bro connection. This guide also works
on any service provider in North America (VTA-VR) and Canada (VTA-CV).
Requirements




Vonage D-Link VTA-VR - 1 internet/WAN port (rj45), 2 telephone ports
(rj11)
Router with Enabled DHCP (Linksys WRT54GC, Mikrotik RouterOS, Linksys
WRT54G,all D-Link routers etc.)
Touchtone telephone (cord or cordless)
Vonage D-Link VTA-VR Setup Diagram
Connecting Vonage D-Link VTA-VR to the Network
1. Plug in the touchtone telephone to Vonage D-Link VTA-VR’s telephone
port 2
2. Plug in the Vonage D-Link VTA-VR to any of the vacant ports of your
Router with Enabled DHCP
3. Turn on the Vonage D-Link VTA-VR.
4. Once initialized, all LEDs should light up. Pick up the phone and
you should be able to get a dial tone.
You cannot connect Vonage D-Link VTA-VR directly to a smart bro
connection due to device provisioning problem, but there is a workaround
for this, MAC cloning.
