I am definitely interested in the budgetone 102 but am a little concerned
about the 10mbit only Ethernet ports !! From what I have read, these are
relatively new models and I like the addition of a second port to daisy
chain your PC from the same network connection, however why 10mbits and not
100mbits ??, I would have thought this would be a minimum these days, I
don't know anyone who still runs 10mbits to the desktop, and im not too
happy about bottlenecking my customers fast Ethernet network with these
phones
A real shame really. Does anybody know if Grandstream will be addressing
this or indeed if they have any current models with at least 100mbit ports
Please do not top post.
I don't think there is a single IP phone which can flood a 10Mbps port.
You do not need 100Mbps on a phone unless it has a passthrough to a PC.
Let's see, using a 64Kbps codec and being generous, will use 100Kbps
on the wire. Assuming the 10Mbps port can reliably run at 8Mbps, that
means the phone would have to have 8 * 1000 / 100 = 80 concurrent
RTP streams. Can anyone see anything wrong with my rough calculations?

I have been using an IN1002 generic handset (supposed to be an unbranded
cisco copy but I am skeptical) for a few months (6months+) now, and it
seems pretty stable - however I haven't found a reliable supplier Also
there is almost no support for them..
I have switched to the grandstream budgetone 102 and they seem pretty
good too. You can pretty much plug in and forget it with both phones.
They do lock up occasionally (once a month to once every 3 months). I
have yet to upgrade the firmware on the grandstreams...

And middle posting is almost as bad. :-)
But.. To the point...
If you would have read what you were replying to, you would have noticed they did mention why weren't they 100Mbits connections on the 102 models for daisy chaining to a PC.
