Phone Number Options
Your SKYBEAM Phone Service ships with a new working telephone number
that you can begin using immediately. This number is printed on the your
manual with your voicemail password. If you are NOT going to port your
phone number (bring your number to SKYBEAM), or wish to do it at a
later time, please skip to page 8, “Setting up the Phone Service.”
1. KEEPING YOUR CURRENT NUMBER
If you decide to port (keep) your number, please follow these steps:
A. The number you wish to port must be active with your current
phone company.
B. A “Letter of Authorization” must be entered via the website:
http://www.skybeam.com/lnp (LNP Form)
C. Use a copy of your phone bill to fill out the online form.
D. Once submitted, we will process the port, which takes about 20-
30 calendar days. You will receive an e-mail notification when the
port has been submitted and when it is completed. Please keep your
porting number active with your existing provider until we notify you
that the port has completed.
2. PHONE SETUP OPTIONS WHEN PORTING
Please choose one of the three options listed below if you are porting
your phone number to determine when and how to set up your phone
service:
A. CALL FORWARDING OPTION (recommended)
Call forward your porting number to the Skybeam assigned number
and start using the Skybeam Phone Service to make and receive
all your calls. Once you have forwarded your calls to the Skybeam
assigned number, go to page 8, “Setting up the Phone Service.”
B. TWO PHONE OPTION
Keep your existing phones hooked up to your current phone service,
and set up your Skybeam Phone adapter with a phone plugged into it.
When your existing phones quit ringing and the Skybeam phone starts
to ring, the port has completed. At that time, follow the steps on page
11, beginning with step 10. This will allow you to set up all phones
in your home to use the Skybeam Phone Service. To proceed with
setting up your Skybeam Phone adapter, go to page 6, “Setting up the
Phone Service.”
