Is anyone else using the Zoom ata's with success?
I get calls in on a second line here but cant call out... just busy signal.

Yep, I have some working with 3 accounts in/out. One on PBXes and two on other * servers.Quote:

[edit to add that none of mine are connected directly to a single VSP]
Firmware on mine is at 2.0.1 Zoom tech helped me there.
I cant get it to dial out though no matter what firmware so I figured Id see if it was something about the Zooms.
Once things get settled around here Ill get em to send me another Grandstream for my other number...
Are you just trying to go directly to VOIPo with the Zoom? Have you tried with any other providers?Quote:

These days, my _only_ directly connected ATA is an old ArtDio IPS-3101h that provides failover to POTs here at the house. It is connected to one of my original TelaSip accounts which has a _long_ super-reliability history for me with _lots_ of extra features that Gene allowed me way back when he started allowing residential accounts. Although POTS is supposed to be the reliable anchor, I'd note that when I lived [full-time ;-) ] in SC, somehow my internet and TelaSip were alive when POTS was down following hurricane damage with major electrical outages [I had generator & UPS backup]! I put a phone out on the porch that my neighbors used to provide and update their status to worried relatives and make other critical calls for a few days. Even the cell phone services were unreliable and overloaded.
I wish my internet were that reliable... I need to make a deal with the cable company to let me power the local node during extended power outages. ;)
I havent tried with any other providers but may have to try that.
Do you know how to do a factory reset on one of these?
Thanks guys!
<sarcasm>These things are just great</sarcasm>
No wonder Tim booted them!
Factory Reset- unplug power. hold the reset button for 30 seconds or so. (5-6 seconds indicated by the forum world for other Zoom products didnt work for me)
The unit will revert to settings you had in it when it got its last firmware update. (I hope you remember what password it had in it at the time.)
We really liked them functionality wise, but the provisioning and firmware updates were the areas we had constant issues with. I didn't feel comfortable sending them out to customers and then them not accepting our updates, etc. It could get messy.Quote:

My softphone works fine though and thats the biggest reason for the second account I have.
;)
Yeah, mine is locked onto zooms service and I cannot get in.
Keep it or chuck it ?
I have more if anyone would like to have one, let me know and just pay for shipping :)Quote:

Quattrohead- How do you mean? The chooser page? If so call tech support and give them your mac address.
Beware the chooser page.
The FWD link downgraded my Zoom and I had some link thru a support page I plugged the MAC ID into to get it back to a newer firmware.
That was is SC with Horry Telephone Cooperative. I wish I still had reliable service like that too. Reliability with DSL, among many other things, is not something I've had since I moved to NC and Embarf's service area, even with a 'business-class' service. :(Quote:

They really are a better replacement than my old DTA-310s. :D
