So you must be getting enough sign-ups that you don't need to actually beta the 502 devices? Note the comment about Viatalk having NAT issues per this DSLR comment:
http://www.dslreports.com/forum/r21292925-
And then there was the issue I noted below also from DSLR, but a different provider ...
Using VOIPo services since February 2007
Beta Tested the VOIPo Reseller Plan.
A happy VOIPo Residential Customer
Using VoIP devices since 12-2002
Companies I've tried
iConnectHere|Vonage|BroadvoxDirect|Vonage|Packet8| VOIPo
VOIPo is a keeper!
Received a GS-502 this afternoon, so far working great behind my router.
If asking the users to place the GS-205 between the modem and router would be asking them to possibly make changes for PPPoE. IMO that would be a support nightmare.
At some point in the setup, if you use PPPoE, you still have to engage it. Why is this more difficult?
At the moment, I have my DSL modem bridged and my router does the PPPoE.
I will shortly try to set up the 502 as a router in addition to the VOIP functions (I bought 2 lines) and my present router only as an access point for my lan.
Since my present setup is working flawlessly, I am hesitant to mess it up.
guys,
what's your HT-502 firmware version?
my HT502 shows: Program-- 1.0.1.8 Bootloader-- 1.0.0.9 Core-- 1.0.0.23 Base-- 1.0.0.66
according to GS site, the latest is 1.0.1.15 - release notes
my wish list:
- Intelligent Call Forwarding that detects the incoming call originated from the "forwarded" phone and rings the original destination instead
Call History that makes use of CallerID/Custom CallerID+Location. Call History only shows Custom CallerId+Loc. No CNAM look up; Albeitly,it's a step in the right direction!
- Scheduled sim. ring with a twist (see wish #1)
When I first got the 286, I also noticed the firmware was out of date. At that time, Norm and I tried upgrading it and found a bunch of problems happening.
I would maybe wait for VOIPo to push any acceptable upgrades via the MAC from their servers. If you are provisioned, I believe they can take care of it.
