Linksys PAP2 Firmware Update

[VOIPoTim]

Oh... it’s good to know that. I did contact support (opened a ticket). But I certainly didn’t change any settings, just plugged ATA in.

Be sure to check the other "Dallas Latency" thread for updates on that. It seems to be coming and going right now.

Oh he did and replied with one of the rudest replies on here.
I had a small issue today where for some reason I could not call a 1800 number (tried a few it would just go silent) but a reboot of the ATA fixed that. It was weird because any other call was fine.

Sorry if you felt my reply was rude. All I wanted was to get an explanation if it was ever possible to get a smooth service. I finally got a PAP2T, and I spent some money on a router. And I spent lots of time configuring it. Also, I was told (oh.. and You, Xponder1 told me that) that my registration issues will be fixed once I get a PAP2T and a router. And here I am, just after 4 days of running on PAP2T, loosing registration for the whole day. What reaction do you expect from me? Just put yourself in my situation. Everyone here praises Timothy but actually the company’s service is far from yearning much praises. Issues are coming nearly every day. Nearly every day there are new issues coming in. After all, I’m helping YOU, VOIPo, to fix your issues. Seems like not much people here even care to point at these problems.

1. The fact that you "spent lots of time configuring it (a router)" tells me you have no idea what your doing. My PAP2 is plugged into my router and I did not have to configure anything at all. No ports forwarded... nothing. Maybe you should try undoing all those settings you changed.

2. I do not recall telling anyone getting a router would fix all their problems. If your internet is crap than your voip service is going to be limited by your crappy internet.

3. Wow you have had one problem and your freaking out. You already made your mind up about the service maybe what you need is a nice pots line??

4. I think everyone here likes the fact that Tim is up front and tells us what is going on to the best of his knowledge. Those of us who know how voip works know that since the internet is not perfect that from time to time there will be a short lived problem. Big deal.

5. I would take a guess that 99% of their customers are not having any major problems. Their were some issues today but they were mild and did not last long. You seem to have no understanding at all of how the internet works.

5. I do not work for VOIPo.

6. "Nearly every day there are new issues coming in." this is total bs. Since the 502's were replaced I have not had a single problem until today. So lets see over a month of flawless service. Ya I am happy.

7. "Everyone here praises Timothy"

I (and many others it seems) give credit where credit is due. Tim is a great guy and if you would open your eyes and see the big picture you would feel the same way. Coming on the forums where they provide limited support harassing and insulting them does nothing but annoy everyone else. Next time try submitted a ticket.

Xponder1,

1. I spent a lot of time configuring the router because I installed Tomato firmware on it, and yes, I don’t install Tomatoes or routers every day. Yes, I plugged PAP2T in and it was it, and it was working fine until today. And this tells me that you did not read my post carefully.

2. My internet is not a crap, and Tim acknowledges every time that the issue is on their side. BTW, you’re the one who should watch your language here. I never used words like “crap” as you did.

3. “Wow you have had one problem and your freaking out”.
First of all, I did not have ONE problem. I’ve been having them almost every day when I was on HT502. Read my posts. And second, I’m not freaking out, put simply communicating. The service is really inconsistent here and I’m not gonna keep my mouth shout about that. It’s a public forum.

4. I like that too. I just don’t like to have my phone disconnected in the middle of a working day and without me knowing that.

Since the 502's were replaced I have not had a single problem until today.

Which is how long? I believe about 3-5 weeks. You consider that a good service?

Tim is a great guy and if you would open your eyes and see the big picture you would feel the same way.

I agree. But problems go on. New ones every time.

I don’t recall insulting and harassing except maybe by you on your previous post. And yes, I submitted a ticket.

stason99 - You're obviously frustrated. I think the Grandstream issues early on have permanently affected your opinion of VOIPo service.

As I've said before, if you're not comfortable with VOIPo service, I'm happy to arrange for a refund so you can find a service that might meet your needs better. ViaTalk is a company that has similar pricing which may be an alternative to look at.

If this is something you'd like to take advantage of, let me know.

I know about ViaTalk. And no, I’m not leaving now. I’m giving you more time to fix you issues. But meanwhile I’m not going to hesitate and put out my opinion about the service here on the public forum. But if you’re intended to ban me here on the forum, please, just let me know in advance. But anyway, I would wish so that you focus on straightening out your service problems, rather than trying to get rid of me and other people who are not completely satisfied.
