| No Dial Tone | Check all cable connections (Ethernet, power, handset). Ensure the phone is powered on. Contact your system administrator if the issue persists. |
| Cannot Connect to Wi-Fi | Verify Wi-Fi password. Ensure the phone is within range of the Wi-Fi access point. Restart the phone and try again. Check network settings. |
