I didn't experience those issues. I use both 900mhz and 2.4ghz phones as
well as several cell phones in this location. Are you using the most
current
firmware?

Just make sure you don't have a cordless or cell phone near by or the
headset jack will "receive" a considerable amount of interference into
your
conversation (when NOT using a headset).

Also don't even try using a headset... volume is low and there is a loud
humming noise.

Last annoying factor is that pressing a Line button while already
engaged in
a conversation on that line will disconnect your call.  
Better example--

You're in a conference call with L1 and L2 You want to put L1 on hold
and
talk to L2 privately Most phones, you'd just press L2 On the 841 doing
so
would disconnect L2 and leave you speaking with L1

I too, don't seem to have any of the problems you indicate. I find the
phones seem to work quite well on headphone as well.

However I have upgraded two of our phones from the supplied 0.9 software
to 3.0 and the headphone and speakerphone become unusable due to
background noise muting the incoming headset and speaker audio.

I have discovered that you can lock up the ones with 0.9 sw if you set
the provisioning wrong. I got out of it by disconnecting the newtwork
cable, changing the ip of the unit and was able to get back into them.

Apart from that they seem to be good value for money and do the job
well.

I just hope sipura can fix the overactive muting on the
speakerphone/headset or I need to get hold of sw to downgrade the two
phones back to 0.9
