PAP2T static IP

[burris]

Mine is BYOD. It is a PAP2T. I had 2 1/2 years of no outages with these settings. Recently I had about 2 weeks of not registering, but it has been solid again for the last week.

I left mine as it was provisioned and I can't imagine anything working any better.
I'll keep my fingers crossed that it stays this way.

Well, here is my System page, in Advanced mode:



I guess the difference is I am logged in as User. So, does this mean you have to be in Admin mode to set up static ip?

The answer is...yes.

However, and I don't know for sure, you might ask support if they can hard code this in for your config profile.

I am BYOD. I have configured my DNS servers to be the DNS servers that voipwelcome.com uses (hostgator: 67.18.54.31, 67.18.54.32). That way, if Voipo makes a change (say where sip.voipwelcome.com points to or another server), I get the updates as soon as they hit that domain's DNS server (instead of me having to wait for the TTL to expire on where ever the domain is cached along the way since it could take 24-48 hours depending for my ISP's DNS servers to update these entries). I asked Voipo if they cared what DNS servers we used and they said they did not. I can only recommend using their DNS servers; otherwise, you should use your ISP or OpenDNS (or your router if it's running a caching DNS server).

Why do you have DHCP set to YES if you want to set STATIC IP?

Edit: Tried it without success too. Info page shows NO DNS settings and no option provided for DNS entry. Admin Privileges probably required.

Sorry, I did have it at no when I was trying static IP, but I am running dynamic now (and was when I took the screen shot), and just reserving the IP in my router.

The PAP2T has a voice menu system built in through which you can set a static IP. You can get the user manual at http://www.linksysbycisco.com/US/en/...PAP2T/download. Instructions start on page 8.

Basically, pressing '****' puts you into the menu system. From there you enter a numeric code for the option you want (see below). Finish your entries with the '#' key. Use a single '*' for the period in IP addresses.

'101#' change DHCP
'111#' set static IP
'121#' set subnet
'131#' set gateway

Please see the user manual for more detailed instructions.

I hear "Invalid option" when I try to enter 111#
