This IP7000 Business phone is driving me crazy!!!

 

What do i have to do to get this device working with a simple SIPs telephoneCenter (Auerswald COMmander 6000R)

 

It is so incredible bad, receiving a phone for round about 700EUR with Firmware from, i don't know, 1990? (v3.3.3)

 

Setting up an tftpd for upgrading this **bleep** phone is really annoying.

 

But it is up2date right now.

 

So, what is the magic bit....what do i have to do to get this working?

 

I have the server IP, the username and the password, all you need for a SIP Connection, but the phone isn't conencting...why?

 

 

Cheers

Christian

Hi Steffen,

 

it is/was so annoying, buying a phone for much money and receiving this phone with an antique firmware installed (3.3..)

 

The update process is annoying too, no good documentation, just hundreds or thousands of Readme Files...but nothing like "HERE YOU GO! Update your phone in 1-2-3 steps"

 

I found a solution in another forum/wiki where somebody was also frustrated by this process...

 

 

No it seems to work, but the SIPs Connection isn't working.

 

At http://community.polycom.com/t5/VoIP/FAQ-Can-I-register-my-Polycom-Phone-with-a-XYZ-SIP-Server/td-p/... i can't find any HowTo's for the IP7000.

 

Cheers

HelloChristian ,

as already explained:

 

Sep 17, 2014 Question:What Software Version will Polycom ship phones with?

Resolution: Please check => here <=

 

The above explains in detail why we ship our phones with a certain software version and also allows you access to documents stating when we make changes to the delivered software version.

 

Polycom does not have any control how long a reseller stores our phones before shipping these to end customers.

 

According to our November 2014 Product Shipping Configuration Change Notice the SSIP 7000 should be shipped with UC Software 4.0.4 if purchased after November 2014.

 

This indicates that the reseller who you purchased the phone from may have had this phone prior to the above in their stock. This is completely outside Polycom's control.

 

In regards to upgrading the phone you could simply follow the FAQ here:

 

Oct 7, 2011 Question: How can I setup my Phone / Provisioning / Download / Upgrade / Update / Downgrade Software?
Resolution: Please check => here <=

 

The above explains this in minute detail and should be rather simple to follow.

 

In regards to your SIP Registration, there is no individual Phone instruction as our phones all use the same interface. If you have a SIP account and the password simply add these as shown in the already provided FAQ.
