I just upgraded to the new bootblock and 3.2.2 firmware, and these phones will now talk video to other devices. Nothing in the changelogs indicates why, but there is a definite jump up from the previous release of this phone. So, I duly stand corrected. OTOH, once upgraded, DHCP seems to be broken on these phones where static IP configuration is working perfectly :( Regards, Steve -- _____________________________________________________________________ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
