[asterisk-users] Legacy Cisco ATA186I1

[drew einhorn]

The ATA186I1 is way past end of life,

it was the first version of the ATA186,
but it's still working with only a couple
adjustments to a factory default configuration.

Unlike the brand spanking new Cisco/Linksys SPA2102.
Which has a number outstanding issues with Cisco/Linksys
tech support.

It's taking a lot longer than I was expecting to get
the new  box working.  And I may continue using the
ATA186I1 for a couple extra lines after I get the new
box up and running.

I have a couple versions of the firmware, release notes,
and administration guides, etc.

But I don't have any user level documentation on how
to use its features.

All I have done is pick up the phone when it rings
and dial phone numbers with area codes.
Caller ID does not come up when I use the
ATA186,  I have seen Caller ID come up
when using a near default configuration on
the SPA2102.

What is the final mainstream version of the firmware that
I should be running on the ATA186.  And where would I get it.
I'm assuming I can't get it from Cisco anymore.

Any known, serious issues, that were never addressed
because they were discovered after the box was past its
end of life?
