I consider the whole ethos of Snom phones to be fucked up beyond all repair. Until they provide a way to reboot these phones through the web interface regardless of what connections are still in place, then I consider them little more than junk. The only sure way to update these phones is to update them via a factory reset/tftp upgrade then block the phones from making any web connection out of the network at the firewall, and that requires physical access. _______________________________________________ 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
