Anyone try the new Cisco firmware for the 79xx sip phones? In my test it seems to work fine for a little and than soon the phone looses its time. At first the status shows clear, and then it appears to get confused about the ntp time source and the time goes away on it. No features, just bug fixes. Perhaps I have something wrong with my ntp settings, but the other firmwares work just fine. -- respectfully, Joseph ==============---------------------= ********** =

I have to go into the time settings on the phone and then hit save and the time comes back. Doug
I had the same problem with 7.4. Looks like the new firmware is picker about the time server. With the old release if the phone couldn't get the time it would just use its internal clock. Now it does not display time when it does not get an update. I did fix the problem. Go into SIPDefault.cnf and change the sntp_mode: from directedbroadcast (the default) to unicast. This will cause the phone to poll your NTP server. This solved the problem for me. --- Joseph <tech@ekn.com> wrote:> Anyone try the new Cisco firmware for the 79xx sip > phones? > > In my test it seems to work fine for a little and > than soon the phone > looses its time.
