This senario works great! I have a Snom phone coupled with a Linksys Wireless game adapter. When on a event trip I was able to have the snom ring where ever there was a signal. So the proof of concept passed. Unfortunatly all the wifi phones I have read about seem to suck! -----Original Message----- From: asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com <asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com>

Hi, I am investigating getting a wifi VoIP phone because its may be a better option than an ATA and a cordless phone.. Does anyone have any experience with the whats out there?? Do they support things like WPA etc?? I have heard the battery life can be a problem.. Is this the case? Thanks..

G'day. I hope this isn't off-topic for the list. I am looking at an Asterisk setup that includes cordless phones. The three choices I can see, at this stage, are: * wifi phones * an ATA and a cordless analog phone * a DECT to SIP basestation The various wifi phone options don't grab us as suitable -- they are costly, have poor battery life and even the best have pretty mixed

I have a need for an ATA that will register over wifi. *NOT* a DECT phone or other cordless type phone plugged into a wired ATA. Not seeing one right off, and following the recent discussions about compact fanless systems, I thought a custom build-your-own might not only be useful for my purpose, but may be a viable product in its own right. So I started looking for mini-PCI based FXS cards.

I'm about to start working with WiFi phones on my Asterisk installations. Can anyone tell me if they are using WiFi phones on wireless network that is extended with WDS and how well the phone handles jumping from access point to access point while on a call? Do any WiFi phones support WPA encryption or are they all still under the impression they are only being used on public hot spots?

I'm looking to build a VoIP solution for 100+ service vehicles that have WiFi hot spots installed (with cellular uplinks). Currently we are trying out Skype wireless handselts and Majick Jack. I'd also like to consider an Open Source solution that can bring the calls back to our data center [possibly integrated without our existing BCM 3.x VoIP PBX]. For hardware someone on the IRC

Greetings list, What are people's experiences with WiFi SIP phones? When I last looked into them about 18 months ago, they were incredibly expensive, had very limited range and poor battery life. In the end, it worked out much more cost effective to simply use ATAs + DECT cordless phones where there was a requirement for portable devices. I assume things must have moved on somewhat since

We're getting our feet more and more wet with VOIP at work. We want to experiment with a good wireless (as in WiFi) phone. What would be a good phone to impress my boss with? I'm personally drooling over the UTStarcom F3000, but compatibility and shipping ETA info is a bit sketchy. Phil

Anybody care to muse on Wi-SIP vs. SIP-DECT? My limited research indicates that none of the WiSip phones will ever be able to match the performance of DECT phones. Maybe I'm wrong but a Wi-SIP phone seems like a DIESEL sports car. There is nothing wrong with the technology, but it seems like a shoe-horned fit into the requirements of a wireless endpoint. DECT uses a wireless radio layer

does anyone know of a 2.4 or 5 ghz cordless phone system that has an ip base station? thanks

Hi guys, I'm looking for a affordable conference phone and a wifi phone that has a cradle. Polycom seems to make pretty nice conf phones but the price is a bit crazy for us. I saw the recommendation with ATA plus an analog Polycom phone but I do prefer a SIP phone. All because it's just too difficult to pull a phone cable into the current conference room. Is there any cheaper SIP

Guys. I know there are wifi sip phones out there but I have a question, are any of these phones "anti explosive"? By that I mean, there are certain regulations about phones or cel phones that are not recommended to operate in environments like gas stations due to sparks and the chance of ingiting gas fumes. Are there any wifi sip phones out here that have complaince with regulations to

Paul- I have a ZyXel Prestige 2000W. It seemed to be junk at first, (not saving settings, flaky network connectivity, etc.) But upgrading it to the latest firmware seemed to fix the issues. The only complaint I have with it currently is weak encryption. (64 or 128-bit WEP) YMMV. Brian > >Message: 1 >Date: Thu, 13 Jan 2005 10:34:45 -0700 >From: Paul Fielding

Does such a beastie exist? I've tried a couple of UT Starcom WiFi SIP phones (the F1000g and F3000 respectively), and found them both to be seriously lacking - regular crashes (especially the F3000), poor battery life, and poor reception in particular. However, whilst SIP phones are great, I'd really like an IAX2 phone if there is one, as I can make that work "natively" though

Can anyone recommend a good cordless user-configurable SIP hardphone that is readily available in the states and doesn't cost $300? There seem to be a plethora of decent and affordable corded phones (like from Grandstream) but the search for a cordless unit seems elusive. I purchased a vtech 8100 online only to discover after receiving it that it is locked to vonage service. Thank you.

Martin: I had seen your other post and sent you a message off-list, but I never got a response. What do you feel is the most lacking that does not make it ready for a production enviroment. - I've been using a SIP deskphone in my office and usually some sort of ATA at my house, both as the primary phone. I've also had mobile phones from almost every carrier. Each one of these devices

I see that ABPTech are now offering this SIP Wifi phone. Does anyone have an experience with it? I've considered the Pulver/Zyxel wifi phone but would really rather have something that can handle WEP or WPA. I run an 802.11g wlan with 256 bit WPA encryption. This Hitachi phone looks very much like a cell phone, which could be ideal. Michael -- Michael Graves
