I looked long and hard at the LAN and it was basically narrowed down to the
switches. In this smaller install, several cheapo Dlink ($30) switches
de-aggregate a Cisco Catalyst switch. What I noticed was that any phone
plugged direcly into the Catalyst did *not* lock up or reboot. Any phone
plugged into the crap switches experienced the lockup. So now we are down to
the cheap switches themselves. We are nuking the Dlink switches and
replacing them with 3com workgroup switches, same as what we use in the
large install to good effect, and I fully expect the problem to dissapear.
So does anyone have any theories as to what the technical difference
between a "good" switch and a "bad" or "cheapo" switch actually is?
Lower latency? Better grounding? More cowbell?
