Grandstream HT502 Update

**scott2020** · 03-09-2009 09:44 AM

I haven't had to reboot mine since I have had it, so I don't expect it will need to be rebooted at all. At least I hope so! It is a 'just in case' thing I guess. It was nice to be able to reboot the GS remotely.

I suppose VOIPo can reboot it remotely, should that ever be necessary. I understand Tim said many things can be sent in the SIP messages to the PAP2, so maybe a reboot is one of them? Maybe something like that could be added to VPanel?

I recall Tim indicating that they could reboot the PAP2 remotely, where that's not possible with the HT502 for some reason. If that's the case, a 'reboot' button somewhere in vPanel might not be a bad idea. IIRC, if the PAP receives a reboot command while it's in use, it will hold off on the reboot until the line is idle. (I hope voipo confirms this before making a reboot button available on the vPanel!

)

If my experience thus far with the SPA2102 and now the PAP2T is meaningful, I have yet to reboot to maintain phone service. Only if it's something I am doing on my network that requires a reboot, do I do so.

I'm mainly thinking of the situation where support changes a provisioning file. (And the 'comfort factor' as it's been oft requested in the wake of the HT502 issues...)
