While I'm asking about the Polycom ip500, the answers for all phones where mic/handset/headset levels are adjustable would be of interest to many I'm sure. For the ip500, the default value for the handset seems to be voice.gain.tx.analog.handset="3" I've noticed that echo all but goes away when one reduces the mic volume on almost any phone. My question is, for you users

Hi I am struggling with hardware choices to get started with. My options are narrowed down to SIP phones - Polycom IP500, IP600 and Cisco 7940G. of importance is: - functionality / integration with asterisk - headset functionality and use - voice quality - build quality Is there much of a difference between Polycom and Cisco? Scanning the group it looks like there may be slightly more

What gives with the stupid stupid power system on the Polycom IP500 (I hope they changed it on the 501's). Anyway, does anyone know if you can get some type of joiner to connect two Cat5 cables together, and will this affect the call/signal quality because my Ethernet cable is longer than the dumb 11ft polycom supply (oh and their manual is the wrong about which end goes into the handset

Hi - We have a couple of large spaces that we'd like to cover with dedicated conference units like the Polycom Soundstation IP3000. We're concerned about adequately covering the spaces, though, one of which is very long and narrow. I wanted to get external add-on microphones for the IP3000, but I've found that unlike some of their other conference products, it does not have this

Hi all, I'm researching IP phones for a new office setup. We will need 30 phones. I have read the wiki and the polycom site for the phones, but I still had some questions about real world experience with these phones. -According to the documentation, the 500 series ( and 600, according to a polycom rep ) have built in hubs. Has anybody noticed performance issues in this setup, when

Hi All - I'm running version SIP version 1.3.4 on various IP300, IP500, and IP600 Polycom phones. I'm having a tough time with MWI. I thought I remembered somebody on the list saying that they had it working, but I can't find it in the archives now. I have all the phones configured for MWI as specified in the WIKI: ipdmid.cfg: up.oneTouchVoiceMail="1"

I'm guessing that I need more info entered into the 'message centre' section. What did you key in?

I would like to know if any body is using the Polycom Soundstation IP 4000 SIP conference phone with Asterisk. I am thinking of purchasing one. Kurt

Hello all, Has anyone used the SIP version of this phone with Asterisk? I see Polycom has a H.323 and MGCP version also, does anyone know if you flash the phone to swith protocols? Thanks in advance for the info. Ed -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Hi Everyone, I've been asked to determine which phones our organization should go with. And I've narrowed it down to the Polycom IP500 or the Cisco 7940. From my travels through google, it's hard to find a definitive comparison of the two phones. So I thought I would ask the people that have probably used both. From what I can tell, the only major benefit the Cisco has over the

I am trying to use a Polycom Soundpoint IP400 with my asterisk setup, and have been unable to find the proper firmware and application files to make it work. The phone can access the FTP server, and downloads the IP500/600 configuration files, but claims that the sip.ld file is larger than its file system. I can think of two possible ways to make this work. One is to find the IP400

Any advice on a good conference phone that works with Asterisk? I like the Cisco line and was wondering if anyone has used the 7935 or 7936 phones. From what I can tell they don't have a sip load. Has anyone verified this or gotten an ETA from Cisco? Chad -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

Hi All, I am a remote office that is connected to my office via openvpn on UDP. Voip has always worked well (after discovering g729). Initially I used a softphone, then an analog set on a sipura 2000, then a polycom IP500 (I still LOVE this phone). At that point, I started noticing that the polycom doesn't ring a lot of the time. Since I was desperate for a phone, I didn't upgrade

Hello, I have configured my polycom ip600 and ip500. The phone works well. But the clock is wrong and flashes the whole time. Drives me nuts! I have set the time offset on the DHCP / boot server. 36000 (I'm in Australia!) It doesn't seem to help... Mike

I have sent a Polycom IP500 phone to an overseas remote user who has a Speedtouch adsl modem/router. The phone is connected to the 4 port router which performs NAT for the network. The phone rboots, find the server, downloads it's config and tried to register. Then it immediately becomes UNREACHABLE.

Anyone else have problems with soft buttons not being responsive at all? 2 of the 4 soft buttons do not respond, no matter how hard you push. It is an IP500. Well over 1 year old. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL: http://lists.digium.com/pipermail/asterisk-users/attachments/20061208/b3fa0b42/attachment.htm

Hi, Has anyone here ever used a Polycom IP 4000 Soundstation SIP Conference Phone with asterisk? If so, how well does it work and how does it sound?

Hi, I just got and setup a new ip500 yesterday and it worked for about 15 minutes. Then it froze during a reboot.Now, when power cycled, the logo comes on for 3 seconds and then the screen is blank and nothing further happens. 468* factory reset doesn't work. I am about to send the phone back, but wonderd if anyone had a suggestion first.

Hello, I am looking at the Polycom phones. The ip600 has a very nice screen, is that the only real advantage over the ip500 and ip300.. Is it worth the extra dollars?

Hi folks, I've got a very bizarre problem recurring when making calls with Polycom SoundPoint IP500 SIP phones and Asterisk. Sometimes when a call comes in to an IP500, one of the sides of the conversation is cut off (i.e. the caller can't hear the callee, or vice-versa). This isn't easily repeated, and rebooting the phone, or restarting Asterisk, doesn't seem to have an
