[Asterisk-Users] UK, Disconnect supervision

[Jonathan Attwood]

Peter,

I'm using the firmware 3.1.5(GWb) and was wondering if your suggestions 
would be of any benefit to me. Incidentally, I've never had an issue 
upgrading or downgrading the firmware in 2 spa-3000s, I just had to make 
sure the unit had only just been powered up when initiating the upgrade. 
(YMMV)

Anyway, if you're wanting somewhere else to read & ask questions have a look 
at http://voxilla.com/forum-viewforum-f-14.html  for Sipura/Linksys adapters 
or http://voxilla.com/PNphpBB2-viewforum-f-17.html for asterisk. Fantastic 
resources with helpful & knowledgeable respondents.

||  and so on)   OR   there may be some problem during firmware upgrade

|| component etc. Once it's gone, it's gone.
|| My  fears are probably totally unfounded, but better safe than sorry.
|| So I wouldn't upgrade unless there are good reasons to do so (if it
|| ain't broke, don't fix it).
||
|| But thanks very  much for that hint. I actually have two other
|| adapters, and they may be way out of date: 2.0.13(GWg) -  so they may
|| really need updating.
