b)  If your PhoneOverNet DigitalPhone adapter is new out of the box and does not have a label or sticker with your phone number printed on it, the unit will need to be programmed (provisioned) first.  To do this, after you have completed the steps above, you will simply click on the "Provision DigitalPhone Adapter" button below.  It will then load its programming from our servers.  This process may take a couple of minutes to complete.
