When a Panasonic device displays the message “Registering”, it is notifying you that something prevented it from correctly completing its registration process. Review the following settings to resolve this issue:

Incorrect Network Information: Verify that your phone is on DHCP, or that the Static IP information used on the phone matches the subnet of the network to which it is assigned.

Incorrect Provisioning Server: If your phone is on the network, activate embedded web and check the phone’s IP Address. Follow the steps below to log in to the phone’s web interface:

From the main screen, select Menu → Basic Settings → Other Option → Embedded Web → On. The phone will beep, indicating Embedded Web is now on.
Press the Back softkey twice to go back to the main menu.
Select System Settings → Status → IPv4 Settings → IP Address. Record the IP Address that appears on the screen
Use a web browser on your computer to navigate to the IP Address.
Navigate to the Phone’s IP Address
Enter admin as the username and adminpass as the password.
Log In to Phone Interface

Press the Back softkey twice to go back to the main menu.
Select System Settings → Status → IPv4 Settings → IP Address. Record the IP Address that appears on the screen

Cross-reference the MAC Address of the Panasonic device you are troubleshooting and verify that it has a user’s name in the Assigned to field.

Generate new Authentication Details: The phone connects to Nextiva using a set of Authentication details; these are sometimes generated by default. However, any authentication details that include special characters, which are any non-alphanumeric characters, can cause a failure in registration, which can lead to the “Registering” message on the phone.
