Re: [Asterisk-Users] CISCO 7960G FIRMWARE
Nonsense. If you have access to the firmware, they're fantastic phones and the best phones I've ever used. If you buy the phones new from an authorised dealer, buying the Smartnet contract will cost a few dollars and only take a couple of days to process giving you full access to Cisco's website (including the firmware). -Shaun On Wed, 14 Jul 2004 17:19:10 -0400, Kanuri, Seshu [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi All, CISCO 7960G is may not be a good decision.

By the way: To be legal you also need to buy a SIP license (150 US$ list price). Cisco spare components are sold without any license or software... It would had been better you had bought a phone with a software license.

RE: [Asterisk-Users] CISCO 7960G FIRMWARE
I have to agree that the hardware is fanatastic ... but the functionality is rather poor --- example A --- receive call A answer A Receive call B answer B You can't link/transfer these 2 damned calls. --- example B --- You first have to push new call before dialing a number. this seems to be a detail but 1° why ? and 2° try to migrate users from another system ... --- example C --- an a bit of a proffesional phone transfering a call should be easy and possible in all times : first push more and then transfer again why ??? You only can transfer if you prepared your transfer ! I tend to suspect Cisco not to fine tune their phones for SIP because they are a bit scarry ... for their callmanager ? Give me a combination of the HArdware of cisco and the software of a Snom200 and THAT would be a GREAT phone !

like i said this is a detail look at the other comments but to clearify my point : Try to dial a number without pushing a button or picking up the handset. (dial your number and then pickup the handset or indeed with a dialplan it uses automatically the speakerphone) This is so easy to make it work but why does Cisco not do it ?? but i use also the cisco 7905G and their every point i made against the 7960 does work !? but it is not handsfree !!! it sounds strange but i prefer the 7905g Michael -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Shaun Ewing Sent: donderdag 15 juli 2004 11:03 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [Asterisk-Users] CISCO 7960G FIRMWARE On Thu, 15 Jul 2004 10:08:41 +0200, Michael Devenijn [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: --- example B --- You first have to push new call before dialing a number. this seems to be a detail but 1° why ? and 2° try to migrate users from another system ...

Grandstream can't do it, either. With my current Siemens Octophone F20 I can do: a) dial numbers, e.g. 12345 b) lift up the handset c) I'm connected and can talk Basically a) and b) are switchable, just as you please. Instead of b) lift up the handset I could also do b) press the speakerphone button. ___ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

RE: [Asterisk-Users] CISCO 7960G FIRMWARE
Seshu, I disagree completely with what you say. I've have configure and been using 7960G's (30 of them) with Asterisk over SIP for the last few months and they work absolutely perfectly. Xfastjackx, with regards to sending you the SIP firmware you need to contact a cisco, or a cisco reseller and obtain the appropriate maintenance contact. See http://www.voip-info.org/tiki-index.php?page=Cisco%20Phones for details. The normally ship with the Skinny protocol as default.
