¶ Identifying Device Model
To start and successfully complete registration of your Grandstream device you need to know which device model to set up.
On the back of each Grandstream device, there is exact model information that you should check. Although various device models can have exactly the same requirements and installation procedures, they can also have significantly different requirements and installation procedures, so that is why it is important to know the model you own which results in you setting up the device successfully.
