Yealink W70B is a DECT IP base station designed for wireless VoIP communication. Troubleshooting depends on the issue you're facing. Here are general steps to troubleshoot common problems:
Power Issues
Check the Power Supply:
- Ensure the base station is properly connected to a power source via the power adapter or Power over Ethernet (PoE)
- Try a different power adapter or PoE-enabled network switch port
No LED Indicator:
- If the power LED is off, the adapter or PoE source may be faulty
- Test the base station with another known working power source
Network Connectivity Problems
Check the Ethernet Cable:
- Ensure the Ethernet cable is securely plugged into the base station’s WAN port
- Test with another cable or different switch/router port
Verify Network Settings:
- Check if the base station has an IP address
- Access the Status menu via a registered handset (Menu > Status > Base)
- Alternatively, use a web browser to access the base station’s web interface
- If no IP address is assigned, ensure the DHCP server is enabled on your router
Reboot:
- Disconnect power for 30 seconds, then reconnect
- If using PoE, unplug and replug the Ethernet cable
Registration/Call Issues
Handset Not Registering:
- Ensure the handset is compatible with the W70B base station
- Put the base into registration mode:
- Press and hold the Paging button on the base for 5 seconds
- On the handset, navigate to Menu > Settings > Registration > Register Handset
- Select the W70B base station and enter the registration PIN (default: 0000)
SIP Account Registration:
Verify the SIP settings:
- Find the IP address of the base station (via handset menu or router)
- Log in to the web interface (default username/password: admin/admin)
- Navigate to Account > Register and check if the SIP server, username, and password are correct
- If needed, re-enter credentials provided by your VoIP provider
Check for Firewall Issues:
- Ensure that necessary ports (5060 for SIP, 5061 for secure SIP) are open on your network
Audio Quality Problems
Low Volume or No Sound:
- Adjust the handset volume during a call
- Ensure the handset’s speaker/microphone is not obstructed
One-Way Audio or Dropped Calls:
- Check if the issue is present on multiple calls or only with specific numbers
- Ensure your router/firewall is not blocking VoIP traffic
- Prioritize VoIP traffic using QoS (Quality of Service) on your router
Echo or Distortion:
- Test with another handset or base station
- Reduce interference by keeping the base station away from Wi-Fi routers, microwaves, or metal objects
Firmware Issues
Check and Update Firmware:
- Visit Yealink’s official website to download the latest firmware for the W70B
- Update via the web interface:
- Log in to the base station’s web interface
- Navigate to Upgrade > Firmware Update
