Hi list, I was wondering if anyone had any solution to either one of two issues I'm having: I have a cisco 7962G with the latest (from cisco) 8.5(4) SIP Firmware, it works very well for the most part, but after less then a week of heavy usage, eventually the phone gets into a state where it won't accept or let you place any more calls, the screen flashes "no free lines available" or something along those lines. (power cycle fixes this). So my preferred solution would be to upgrade to the v9.0(3) firmware, but when that's loaded, the phone won't register with Asterisk anymore, does anyone know if I need to adjust my .cnf.xml file, or is it a bug of some sort? Thanks for any input, -- Gerard Saraber Network Admin. Rarcoa, Inc
I know this doesn't answer your question directly, but Where are you getting the Sip 9.0 software? It is not available on Cisco's website. I have Sip 8.9 on my phone and I have noticed that after about 45 mins on a call it will hang up and drop the desktop connection that runs through the phone. I am hoping that upgrading to 8.12 will fix the issue, or I just wasted money on a SMARTnet contract. Regards, James "I see blindness, not as a disability, but more of an ability.

I've got a lot of 79xx phones out there and 7.5 is the last stable release as far as I'm concerned. It just seems to work, no periodic reboots needed, or any other quirkiness like with the newer firmware's. The feature set is not robust, but it is reliable with Asterisk. Keep in mind, Cisco has no incentive to make their SIP firmware work with any other platform other than there servers so I don't really expect it to work properly if at all with Asterisk. 7.5 is the only firmware version that I deploy on a few hundred units and works fine. Good luck. JR
