Re: [asterisk-users] SPA112 Won't stay up
Based on what we're hearing, we've decided to replace the SPA112. Thank you for your input. Mike.

Re: [asterisk-users] SPA112 Won't stay up
How long is the registration timeout? If the device is behind a router/firewall, then you need to set a registration timeout lower than the state table life in the router/firewall. I usually set my devices to just 2 minutes and it works almost all the time. Most Cisco devices have a very long timeout of 3600 seconds.

Re: [asterisk-users] SPA112 Won't stay up
I've got the registration period set to 15 minutes. However, I've got similar devices all over the place that don't seem to have this unreliability issue. The way I solved it with the SPA303 that I had in the office was to replace the Ubee modem with a different make/model. That's not an option in this particular case, though. Mike.

More then likely, the replacement router/modem had a different timeout and it was a luck of the draw that it worked. In routers that allow me to set the UDP timeout, I normally set the timeout to 90 seconds. Most routers that done offer a setting for this are usually set to 90 or 120 seconds Then I usually set my registration time on the ATA's to 60 seconds. The devices I seem to have most issues with are SonicWall routers. Jim Mike. On Thu, Feb 6, 2014 at 11:27 AM, Leandro Dardini ldard...@gmail.com wrote: How long is the registration timeout?

Re: [asterisk-users] SPA112 Won't stay up
Even if they don't support another modem, you can usually use another router. Just put the Ubee in bridge mode and slap a router behind it. This is our typical best practice install. You just can't trust the piece of shit routers that ISP's send out these days.. dw On Thu, Feb 6, 2014 at 12:54 PM, Mike Diehl mdiehlena...@gmail.com wrote: Unfortunately, we plug straight into the Ubee and the ISP will not support any other modem.
