Re: [Asterisk-Users] My Grandstream works, but my X-Lite doesn't:no sound after 5sec
The issue with the 10BaseT in the 102 is not the autosensing by the switch/hub. The problem arises when using the 102 as a local hub for your PC. Anything that you plug into the Net port on the 102 comes out at 10BaseT. If you want to run your PC at 100BaseT, you need an extra cable from the 100BaseT Switch/Hub, regardless of the autoswitching capacity. Stephen R. Besch costas wrote: This is troubling.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] My Grandstream works, but my X-Lite doesn't:no sound after 5sec
Our experience with the Budget Tones 101have been poor as well. The devices seem to die after a day or two (even with the new firmware) and then need to be rebooted. On occasion, the device needs to be literally unplugged and plugged back in as even the reset doesn't work. There are some nice features, but we have all but given up on them for a production environment. Relative to the Cisco ATAs and other devices we are using, the price/performance ratio is not there, particularly from a support cost perspective. If they get the thing to be more stable then we will reconsider them. On Wednesday, October 15, 2003, at 07:00 AM, rnc Info Lists wrote: Do you have a 100 or 101?

Re: [Asterisk-Users] My Grandstream works, but my X-Lite doesn't:no sound after 5sec
I only have 1 but the absolutly only time it has to be rebooted is when I change a parameter or upgrade the firmware. It has run for weeks without any problem. Another poster mentioned the 10 vs. 100 Ethernet speed. Maybe Grandstream can upgrade the interface in future hardware. I don't imagine that the price point for 10/100 is much different than 10 these days. One option I would definatly like is the ability to turn off the ringer. Since my testing ususally happens after my wife goes to bed it would help NOT to have the audible ring but only the visual indication!

Re: [Asterisk-Users] My Grandstream works, but my X-Lite doesn't:no sound after 5sec
That is my thought too - I only have a couple cheap 4 port switches that won't autosense, and are pure 100, everything else runs fine at either 10 or 100.
