asterisk users - Dec 2003 - Sipura SPA2000 & Asterisk & latest firmware (1.0.18)

All,

	If you currently own a Sipura SPA2000, avoid going to the sipura website
and upgrading the firmware.  I upgraded my SPA2k a couple of days ago from
1.0.9 (what it came with) to 1.0.18 off the site, and I am having issues
with my SPA rebooting itself every 3-10 minutes for no apparent reason.  I
have been in touch with the *excellent* sipura support folks, and they are
working with me to resolve the issue (they can't duplicate it!).  They have
sent me some debugging firmware and we're in the data gathering phase right
now.. Just figured I'd send everyone here a heads up that you might have
problems with the latest firmware though.  (I shoulda followed the old rule
of "if it aint broke, don't fix it!").
Also, if anyone out there has an SPA2000 and has tried the latest firmware
with *success*, I'd be interested in hearing from you, otherwise I'd
recommend avoiding it for the time being ;)

Thanks!
Pat

Hmm...
Mine seems to be working just fine.

We are in the process of doing testing with the SPA and our SER servers.  We
have not seen your problem and we are using 1.0.18.   We have seen a nasty
G.729 codec problem when interoping with the GS Phones.  I have consistently
reproduced the problem for Sipura and hopefully they will fix it.  Next week
we will start testing with * and let you know.

Are you sending those reboot messages in the SYSLOG server too?

Andres.

working fine here as well. was not able to install manually since the 
sipura site had only a windows .exe last time I checked; however, it got 
upgraded to 1.0.18 when I signed up for the free month of voicepulse 
service and they provisioned it through tftp.

	Just curious. How do Voicepulse works with any xDSL providers ? AFAIK
SPA-2000 does?nt have a PPPoE client. Are the modem making PPPoE ? In
that case you need to make some PAT on the modem in order to forward SIP
and RTP.
	Any comments ?
