<FONT COLOR="#000000">I just got a Grandstream 100 yesterday. I plugged it into my network and after a few seconds it showed the correct time and date. After that I tried to access the built-in web server. After several tries I finally got the login screen. That took about 10 tries before it displayed anything. Then I entered the default password 'admin' and clicked the Login button. After that I got nothing. The phone still seemed to be working - I could press the Menu button and the menu would come up and I could scroll through it.</FONT><BR>

<FONT COLOR="#000000">After trying that for awhile, I decided to try a firmware upgrade. So I entered the grandstream tftp server address into the phone (168.75.215.189) and it did seem to do the upgrade. At least I think it did. The "P" entry in the revision screen shows 1.0.5.16. There are lots of other revision numbers in there that I'm not sure about.</FONT><BR>

I should add that it was a Grandstream Budgetone 101. Also, I can ping the phone, but I get about 10% ping failures.
