I've had the same problem (looping resets) with my 7940.

The "Error Verifying Config Info" Message doesn't have anything to
do with
the real problem. I also get that message, possibly because I don't keep a
device specific config file (SEP000D65707B78.cnf.xml) or
DISTINCTIVERINGLIST.XML on my tftp server.

The real problem is keepalive timing:

	* the 7940 doesn't like the 5 second default timeout - set timeout
to
>=10 seconds and you avoid the restart loop.
Bye, Martin

	That was it!!!!  Thank you so much!  Now things are working just fine. 
	Now I just have to figure out why I'm not getting DTMF tones decoded
*reliably* from my SIP provider.
