# Do I need an internet connection to use Philips SpeechExec?

## Do I need to be connected to the internet to use Philips Speech Exec?

**Yes**, you need to have internet access to create your SpeechProfile and activate your license. 

For more secure networks,  the following exclusions may need to be applied to allow Speech Exec to work:

[https://license.speechexec.com](https://license.speechexec.com/)  
IP : 13.69.68.7  
ports: 80, 443

 

In case of a network error, you can use SpeechExec without an internet connection for 7 days. When that period expires, SpeechExec can only be used in online mode.
