1. Access the IP Phone’s Web Interface
- Find the IP Address: On the IP phone, access the menu to find its IP address. This is usually under the network settings or status information.
- Open a Web Browser: Enter the IP address of the phone into a web browser to access the phone’s web interface. You might need to log in with the admin credentials.
2. Log In to the Web Interface
- Enter Credentials: Use the admin username and password. If you haven’t changed these from the default settings, they might be something like
admin
/admin
, or you might find them in the phone’s manual.
3. Locate Codec Settings
- Navigate to Audio/Codec Settings: Look for a section related to audio settings, codec settings, or SIP settings. This might be under tabs like “Call Settings”, “Audio Settings”, or “SIP Configuration”.
4. Configure Codecs
- Select Codecs: You’ll typically find a list of available codecs. Common codecs include G.711, G.729, G.722, and Opus. Check or uncheck the boxes to enable or disable specific codecs based on your needs.
- Adjust Codec Order: Some interfaces allow you to set the order of preference for codecs. This determines which codec is used first if multiple codecs are available.
5. Save and Apply Changes
- Save Settings: After selecting the desired codecs and settings, make sure to save or apply the changes. This might require clicking a “Save” or “Apply” button.
6. Reboot the Phone (If Necessary)
- Restart: Some changes might require the phone to be restarted for them to take effect. Check if there’s an option to reboot the phone from the web interface.
7. Verify Configuration
- Test Calls: Make a few test calls to ensure that the new codec settings are working as expected and that call quality is satisfactory.
