How to Use My Lync Phone
Information Technology
What is Lync?
In addition to our Cisco phones, UT Tyler also offers a lower-cost phone option to
departments using our cloud phone service. If you are a Lync customer, you will have
a UT Tyler phone number, but you will be using a PC to answer and make phone calls.
You can connect to our phone service from any PC which has Microsoft Lync installed.
If your department has given you a Lync Phone, you need to know the following:
- Your full 10-digit phone number
- Your device PIN
If you DO NOT remember your PIN, you can reset it anytime by going to https://lync.uttyler.edu/dialin
- Sign in with your credentials
- Make sure to enter your username as UTTYLER\username
- Once you are signed in, you can select the link to "Reset your PIN"
