Chapter 1: Introduction

Thank you for choosing the Linksys Dual-Mode Internet Telephony Kit with Skype. It will allow you to make phone 
calls using your broadband connection (through Skype™) and traditional phone service (optional). It also 
supports SkypeOut™ dialing. For landline service, you must have a service provider and a telephone port to 
connect to. 

The Dual-Mode Internet Telephony Kit gives you cordless convenience, so you don't have to sit in front of your 
computer when you want to talk to your friends. It comes with a handset, charger, and a base station. After the 
handset receives its initial charge, you can plug the base station into an Ethernet port and use the phone 
immediately. 

What is Skype?

Skype allows you to make free calls to other Skype users and really cheap calls to ordinary phones. Skype also 
offers additional features, including:

SkypeOut allows you to place calls to traditional landline and mobile phones.

SkypeIn™

SkypeIn is a subscription feature that provides you with a traditional phone number for 
receiving Skype calls on your cordless phone from traditional landlines and mobile phones.

Skype Voicemail™ Skype voicemail allows you to send and receive messages and record a greeting. 

All of these features are available at www.skype.com
