How do I set up Broadband Voice?

Setup is easy! Take a look at our simple to follow video guide or, just follow the steps detailed below.

1. Once active, the phone LED light on your modem will flash. If the phone LED light is flashing you will need to restart your modem and wait 5 minutes until the light is static.

2. To use your voice service, you will need to unplug your phone cable from your telephone socket and place the cable into the 'TEL 1' slot at the back of your Vodafone Broadband modem.

3. If this requires you to move your phone, then we recommend that you use a cordless (DECT) handset.

4. If you ordered voicemail as part of your services, you can access this feature by dialling 171. By now you will have received your voicemail PIN by text. For security reasons you will need to reset your PIN when you first access your voicemail.

5. To set up any additional call services, e.g. call answering or outgoing call barring, please call us on 1907.

Will my existing home phone services (e.g. monitored alarms) be impacted if I move to Broadband Voice?

Vodafone’s Broadband Voice services do not support any of the services below:

  1. Monitored house alarm systems
  2. Panic/medical alarm services
  3. Sky box pre-2008
  4. Fax lines/machines
  5. Any bank service machine that relies on an analogue connection (using dial-up equipment) 

However, the majority of newer monitored alarm systems use a GSM (SIM card) solution to connect to the monitoring station and do not require a traditional landline.

If your system still uses a landline, you can contact your alarm provider to upgrade to a GSM solution. This will enable the alarm to be monitored over the mobile network using a SIM card, replacing the reliance on a landline.

How will my Broadband Voice services be impacted during power or broadband outages?

Broadband Voice will be unavailable during electricity or broadband service outages as the voice service is provided over broadband.

It is really important that you keep your mobile phone powered up to ensure you have access to voice and in particular emergency service calls using 999 or 112 if there is a power or broadband outage.

You may also consider purchasing a back-up battery service. We recommend purchasing online or if you look for information in our retail store our staff can direct you how to purchase a back-up battery service to support your home broadband or mobile service.
