Select “Yes” to disconnect your desk phone and connect with the soft client. When you return to your desk phone, you will need to log it back in using the same login and password as above.
Congratulations! You are now ready to make calls using your one-X Communicator client. Best call quality can be obtained by using a headset. Laptop speakers and webcam microphones can degrade the audio quality of your calls.
