Get your home phone connected

Follow a guide for your equipment, enter your Lodestar details and check that your phone can make and receive calls.

Before you start

You need an active Lodestar Voice account, your phone number and the SIP password supplied by Lodestar. SIP is the connection your phone equipment uses to make internet calls. The SIP password is separate from your router or website password.

These guides are for customers and testers who have received their connection details. Public Voice orders are not open yet. You can register for launch updates.
