Hello Florian,

just recognized your answer :)
I'll try to dig out the patch and will resubmit it during the next week.
NCID is running stable for almost a year on my router and I really enjoy
having the numbers of incoming calls presented on my TV without having to
buy dedicated hardware like the Vodafone Easybox or a Fritzbox:)
Thanks,

 Chris
