similar to: Aastra 57i / 57i CT phones fail to re-register

Hello All, I have a need for a wireless solution and have been looking at the Aastra 57i CT phone that have the wireless handset with them. Aastra says they will cover "up to 300,000 square feet". I am finding this hard to accept. I was also wondering about the "secure WDCT cordless technology" Could this be a form of DECT? Any one using these that can shed some lite?

Sorry for being a little off topic, but I'mconsidering a few new phones for my Asterisk installation. I have a mix of Polycom 500/600s and an Aastra 480i CT. I'm considering adding a couple of Aastra 57i or 57i CT. Does anyone here have experience with the 480i CT and the newer 57i CT? I'm curious as to the real differences. Thanks, Michael Graves Sr Product Specialist Pixel Power

Does anyone have success in upgrading Aastra/Sayson 480i CT firmware? All I get, no matter what I've tried is "Unable to upgrade firmware". tftpd is working because the dialplan freshens, and I have aastra.cfg whatevermacaddressfile.cfg and firmware.st in /tftpboot Am I missing something stupid? Is there another way to upgrade it? Chris Coulthurst chris@shuksan.com

I recently tried to update my Aastra 57i to version 3.2 and ran into a problem. It won't properly register and says "contact mismatch". I added "sip contact matching: 2" to aastra.cfg, but that didn't help. When I look at the SIP trace, but I see is the Aastra sending a REGISTER and Asterisk replying with the 401. The phone then sends the REGISTER again, this time

We are installing Aastra phones (480's and 57i's) into a fairly simple asterisk setup. Although call park & pickup work fine using xfer to 700 (to park), dial 701 (to pickup), we are unable to make the park/pickup softkey feature work on the aastra's. Although we've programmed the softkeys per the manuals, they seem to have no effect (just dead). For example, our 57i is

Hi, I'm a Polycom user who have just been trying out the Aastra phones. I`ve run into a bit of an issue. I cannot configure the voicemail dialout correctly on one of the two phones I am using, even if the documentation seems to state that it should work in the same manner on both phones. I have both a 9143i and a 57i CT. I`ve set both up with provisioning from config files. Both

Hello all, Our setup consists of an asterisk server (version 1.4.8 ) with a TDM400 card (4 FXO ports) and about 10 aastra 5Xi phones (2 phones are 57i and the rest 55i). The asterisk server is also configured with two SIP trunks. The problem that we're having is that if at any time there is an internet connection interruption to the asterisk server all the aastra phones freeze. If we disable

Are the cordless phones on the 480i CT from Aastra registered independently in Asterisk? Such that if I have 5 of the cordless phones hooked up, each one is it's own "extension?" ________________________________ This e-mail, facsimile, or letter and any files or attachments transmitted with it contains information that is confidential and privileged.

I am currently testing a 57i unit. No problems configuring the phone's config via phone/web UI. We are trying to avoid using the web UI, the reason is it will take a long time typing the softkey xml applications URIs on each phone, so we chose TFTP. Tried configuring the phone via a TFTP config server, but no changes took effect. I wonder why it doesn't work with TFTP even if I was able

I just bought an Aastra 480i CT for a client who needed cordless capabilities in their office. I'm trying to set up the base station and cordless handset in my office first. I'm able to connect the phone to my Asterisk box and make outgoing calls from either the base station or the handset - to extensions within my office as well as numbers outside the network. But I can't

Hi Folks, Looking for feedback on the cordless phones with the Aastra 480i CT handset. Is voice quality comparable to standard consumer residential 2.4GHz cordless phones in the US$30 - $50 price range, or better/worse? How about handset and speakerphone quality for the main phone? Seems like there have been various big issues with firmware in past, but is it pretty stable now? Thanks,

Hi, I'm currently trying to connect an Aastra 57i to our Asterisk Server. The strange thing is, that altough I have definitely entered the correct IP address of the server, the phone doesn't even attempt to register. Here is the configuration file (local.cfg) of the phone: firmware md5: dee6e938b469e217a87138076f47fe41 boot count: 1 tone set: Germany language 1: German time server1:

I'm in the process of converting our current hybrid key system to Asterisk and Aastra 57i phones. One of the features that seems to be a show stopper for almost everyone in the office is the inability to see who is on the phone. Can someone point in the right direction to setup an XML app on the phone so they can press a soft-button and get a list of extensions and their statuses? I know I can

I have a 536i expansion module attached to a 57i-CT. The BLF lights on the 536i will light up and work fine for a while... however after a bit they seem to loose their ability to see if someone is on a phone. They still work to dial, if I try to dial, however, they don't light up when someone makes a call, or if their phone rings. If I reboot the phone, the lights start working again

Hi, I have 2 phones AASTRA 57i with Asterisk 1.6.

Hi, I can't find a way to tailor DHCP/TFTP/HTTP environment so that brand new Aastra SIP phones can be auto-provisioned when config files are stored in a specific TFTP subdirectory instead of TFTP root directory. For instance, TFTP root directory is /srv/tftp. When config files are stored in /srv/tftp, a new Aastra can find its config files. When config files are stored in /srv/tftp/aastra,

Hi. Does anyone have a patch or workaround for the 50 BLF limit of Aastra phones? I have a couple 57i with the 560M console and only the first 50 BLF lines get registered. I am using the latest firmware from Aastra but I read that this limit was imposed because of a memory leak. Obviously my customer is complaining about these last 10 lines not showing their status. -- Telecomunicaciones

Hello everybody, I'm having issues with calls being dropped on Aastra phones, when the call is on hold. Tested with models 6863i and 6867i. I've figured that the call is dropped by Asterisk when it reaches the rtpholdtimeout limit. I've reported the issue to Aastra, asking them to implement some kind of "RTP keep-alive" feature on their phones. Maybe the phone could send

Hi, I`ve been toying with an Aastra phone (9143i) wondering if it could be a good alternative to to the more expensive Polycom phones. One thing which I can't figure out, although it certainly looks simple, is to update the firmware though FTP (not TFTP). I have set the ftp provisioning server in the Aastra phone, and put the firmware file 9143i.st in the root folder where the
