I can't say 100%, but I'm almost postive that I was running that version of software on mine before I upgraded.  I now testing 7.1 on it with no issues.

I took a network trace to figure out what it was doing.  One other thing I did was make a set of binaries without a complete filename, eg: P0S3-07-.bin, .loads, .sb2, and .sbn.

Here is how my directory looked, minus the SEP & SIP conf. files.  In other words, I made multiple copies of each file in an effort to give the phone what it was looking for, and it eventually found it.  If you can take a trace of the communication between your phone and server, you might be able to see exactly what it is requesting.
