Why won't my phone won't provision on Yay?

For more information on how to auto-provision hardware for the first time, please take a look at our dedicated FAQ on ‘Auto-Provisioning Hardware’

 

 

If you are struggling to get your phone to connect to the Yay system, please consider the following:

 

Local Network Connection

 

Ensure that the handsets are correctly connected to the internet and have been able to obtain a local IP address.

 

 

Local Network Firewall Configuration

 

While our auto-provisioning system will work on most default network configurations, if a particular network has strict rules, you should ensure that the following domains are whitelisted:

 

  • voipcp.com

 

  • yay.com’ 

 

  • yealink.com’ if using Yealink Devices

 

  • grandstream.com’ if using Grandstream devices

 

 

Device Firmware

 

Depending on the version of firmware that a device is running, it may not be able to connect to Yay until it is upgraded to the latest version. For a list of supported Yealink models and the minimum compatible hardware, please visit our FAQ here.

 

Note - Some EOL handsets may not have the correct firmware available to be used with the latest security standards, and may not be compatible with Yay for secure auto-provisioning.

 

 

User Assignment in Yay

 

Ensure that the handset has been assigned to a User in the Dashboard under Voice > Config > Hardware > Device

 

 

Factory Reset

 

Perform a Factory Reset of the handset to ensure it reconnects to the RPS correctly. Most Yealink models can be reset by holding down the ‘OK’ or ‘redial’ button for 10 seconds.

 

 

Device Registration

 

If your device has provisioned successfully with the correct details, but is not registered or not able to make and receive calls, then please explore the local firewall configuration point above, and ensure that any SIP ALG firewall setting is disabled.

 

 

Contact Support

 

If you are still struggling to get the handset to connect, please contact support (help@yay.com) and provide the Public IP address of the network that the handsets will be communicating from so we can run further diagnostics.
