I receieved my first PAP2-NA yesterday from our distributor(Tech Data). It installed pretty easily and has worked great so I went to order some more of these units today. When I logged into Tech Data this morning, the PAP2-NA was now marked as discontinued and no longer available and only the PAP2 version was available which is the Vonage branded version. :( I saw someone on the list say that they heard from Cisco that these units were not due out until Dec. Did Cisco/Linksys pull these units off the shelves? -- Eric Merkel MetaLINK Technologies, Inc.

Did Cisco/Linksys > pull these units off the shelves? > > -- > Eric Merkel > MetaLINK Technologies, Inc.This really chaps my hide. The situation as it's been explained to me is: Apparently, too many *consumers* were accidentally buying the PAP2-NA (unlocked) version and then complaining/returning them to Linksys b/c they didn't understand that they need a service provider to be able to place and receive phone calls. Either the people intended to buy the Vonage version, or they just didn't realize they needed a service provider and ended up with a paperweight. Linksys is pulling all stock of these units back from the distributors and requiring that they only be sold to ISPs who have the capability to provide VoIP service. If you've already got one, you're lucky....I had my order confimation but they hadn't shipped yet...My order was cancelled. I hope to hear more from my vendor later today, I'll let you know what else I can find out. Marty
Shite, I ordered some a few days ago from TD and they have my order on hold. Gary> > I receieved my first PAP2-NA yesterday from our distributor(Tech Data).

Well just did a search on bottom line and they do not have the PAP2-NA
listed anymore. They may still have them in stock if you call them though.

Ok guys here is the deal. Someone decided that the boxes were shipped to soon. Alright, whatever. Now we are told that Linksys will have a program where you must be certifed as an ISP or VOIP company in order to purchase the box. Call as many dist. as you like but, selling the box after being told not to; will only get the dist. in trouble. So Linksys / Cisco now decides who is an Internet Service Provider? Speaking for myself this is real bullshit. As to why its being down? Power & Control. Cisco seems to forget just who the hell made them as big as they are. Our company has made it clear to Cisco, not Linksys that there will always be other suppliers. Many of you will remember when SCO wanted you to get certified on Unix just because they needed extra cash. Or when Compaq wanted people approved and so on..... the market demands this type of item. Others besides Linksys will build it. Leadtek offers a unit we use and the support is excellent. Its more money but I doubt that Leadtek or others will just sit by. The cash is there, the boom is on... Let the band play! Brandon

To buy from a distributor such as Ingram, Tech Data, etc. you need to show Linksys that you have a moderate amount of clue regarding VoIP. It is about a five minute phone call to Linksys to get qualified. Many manufacturers have similar programs. I qualified our company, it was quite painless. To buy from a dealer or reseller who has done that, no problem. Any Joe Six-pack can buy one. Of course you'll pay the reseller's markup, so it will cost a tad over $50 instead of a tad under $50. There is some method to their madness. After-sale support can be a fairly large part of the cost of a product, especially a $50 product whith a huge configurable feature set. Linksys doesn't want thousands of end-users to flood them with stupid questions after they've rendered their boxes useless. This is part of the Vonage deal. Vonage gets to deal with the unwashed hordes and has a financial incentive for helping them to get the ATA going. The reduced support costs are worth something to Linksys. They want to do the same thing with the unlocked version. If the reseller has an incentive (and the know-how) to provide first-level support, the box costs less. By the way, look for the RT31P2 to also be available in a month or two de-Vonage-ized. It'll be renumbered as an RT41P2-NA (probably with another LAN port if they follow their numbering scheme) and will have T.38 fax support. -- Jay Hennigan - CCIE #7880 - Network Administration - jay@west.net WestNet: Connecting you to the planet. 805 884-6323 WB6RDV NetLojix Communications, Inc. - http://www.netlojix.com/
What you said was true. I was trying to keep it simple. We are going to be doing all our own support and are not dealing with the dist companies you mentioned. Right now we are happy to be able to offer the low cost product. Brandon> This is part of the Vonage deal.

So, does this mean I should bring my PAP2 back to Best Buy? I haven't opened the box yet. I wanted to use it to experiment with Asterisk. I purchased it before reading the list! --Mike M.>> Ryan Wilkins wrote:>> This begs the question, again, that someone else posted originally..what>> about loading SPA-2000 or PAP2-NA firmware in the PAP2?

If it indeed is Sipura, I may be able to give a try to reset the box, if you can put it on a public IP. I know how to unlock VoicePulse,which is SIPURA so this may not be difficult.

I want to replace my audiocode MP104 MGCP gateway with a * server and I wondered if anyone has done this before, or can anyone provide the confiuration to do this? I have used the wikki and sample config file to no avil. Thanks, Gary
