How to connect to Wi-Fi on the LINKVIL by Fanvil W611W Portable Wi-Fi Phone

Wi-Fi phones are telecom devices that are equipped with the capability to connect to the internet through a WiFi network. When using these devices, you are able to make phone calls and receive and/or send messages through a WiFi connection. 

Wi-Fi calling is a voice service that lets users place and receive calls over the Internet through WLAN (wireless local access network), as opposed to using a cellular signal, so it doesn’t need to rely on the network of cell towers. 

Fanvil, a leading global audio and video VoIP device provider, recently announced the launch of a new sub-brand LINKVIL to produce wireless unified communication products. With Wi-Fi phones becoming more popular, Fanvil has recently released a phone specifically designed for the wireless communication needs of a mobile office, the LINKVIL by Fanvil W611W Portable Wi-Fi Phone.

The LINKVIL by Fanvil W611W Portable Wi-Fi Phone is a portable, elegant Wi-Fi phone that is light and portable, suitable for one-hand holding, and can be used for mobile offices anytime and anywhere. The W611W has built-in dual-band 2.4G & 5G Wi-Fi, supports the latest WiFi6 protocol, supports fast roaming, and is widely used in various wireless network environments. 

Users can connect to Wi-Fi through either the device or the web. 

Connecting through the Device Side:

  • Enter [Menu] >> [Settings] >> [Wireless Network], and enable the wireless network. 
  • Select an available network and click to enter. 
  • Select the corresponding Wi-Fi network from the Wi-Fi list, click Connect, and enter the password. 
  • After clicking OK, the Wi-Fi connection is successful, and the corresponding Wi-Fi display will show “√”

When the network is not connected, there are several ways to connect to the Wi-Fi:

 Wi-Fi Open Unconnected- -> Wi-Fi Off: prompt “Network Disconnect”

  •  Cancel: Return to standby
  •  OK: Go to the Wi-Fi Settings

 Wi-Fi open connected- -> Wi-Fi connection disconnected: prompt “IP acquisition failed”

  • Cancel: Return to standby
  • OK: Go to the State-Network

 Wi-Fi Open connected- -> Wi-Fi Off: two prompts, first “Network Disconnect” before “IPacquisitionfailure”

  • Cancel: Return to standby
  • OK: Refto both above

Connecting through the Web Side:

Log in to the device web page, and go to [Network] >> [Wi-Fi Settings]. Select to enable Wi-Fi, and configure the corresponding SSID, username, and password.

And that’s it. You are now connected to Wi-Fi!
