Set Gigaset

On this page you will find the settings for Gigaset devices. For Gigasets with wireless devices, you set up the base station (the Gigaset VoIP center). The Gigaset VoIP handsets are connected to the base station. When setting up, it is important to enter the data exactly as shown in the example.

This manual is suitable for the Gigaset N300A IP and N510 IP Pro. Other models will also be suitable for VoIP (Gigaset VoIP phones), but the interface may look slightly different.

• Press the blue button on the front of the base station; the registered handsets will now ring and the IP address will be displayed on the screen.
• Go to a web browser on a computer that is on the same network as the phone and enter the phone's IP address.
• Log in with password 0000

Note: If you are setting up multiple VoIP accounts on one base station, you only need to make this change once.

Possibly update

Recently, Gigaset has resolved many bugs in their firmware. It is recommended to update the firmware of your base/phone. Click on 'Management' and then on 'Firmware update'. In the 'Dataserver' field, enter profile.gigaset.net/device/latest. Your Gigaset will then be automatically updated to the latest firmware. A guide for this can be found on the Gigaset wiki. The firmware for the N300A IP and N510 is the same.

Encrypted calling

It is not possible to set up encryption for Gigaset N300A IP and Gigaset N510 IP Pro through our platform.
