I've tested a few different wifi SIP phones for office/factory use, and
generally have been underwhelmed. Before I grab another few and test, I'd
like to ask around here about the candidates.
My requirements are relatively simple:
- WEP/PSK should be supported WITHOUT dragging the phone down
- roaming between access points without dropping the call
- decent set of ringers, not the garbage that cell phones use now
- vibrate, ring, ring&vibe (increasing volume a bonus)
- transfer, hold, display caller ID
- mass deployment (similar to polycom?) TFTP/FTP/HTTP config
- decent, but not enormous battery life
- replaceable batteries
What's not important:
- NAT passthrough
- colour screen
- MIDI ring tones
Bonus features:
- programmable soft buttons
- bluetooth
Currently I'm looking at the WIP300/330 and if I can find a source, the
C&W/Hitachi wifi phone. I've tried some of the UTStarCom phones, Pulver's
WiSIP and another I can't think off offhand.
Is there anything out there that anyone else has been reasonably happy with?
-A.
