[Asterisk-Users] Reccomendation for reliable handsets

[Brett, Gary]

Thanks Mark

I am definitely interested in the budgetone 102 but am a little concerned
about the 10mbit only Ethernet ports !! From what I have read, these are
relatively new models and I like the addition of a second port to daisy
chain your PC from the same network connection, however why 10mbits and not
100mbits ??, I would have thought this would be a minimum these days, I
don't know anyone who still runs 10mbits to the desktop, and im not too
happy about bottlenecking my customers fast Ethernet network with these
phones

A real shame really. Does anybody know if Grandstream will be addressing
this or indeed if they have any current models with at least 100mbit ports


Regards

I have been using an IN1002 generic handset (supposed to be an unbranded 
cisco copy but I am skeptical) for a few months (6months+) now, and it 
seems pretty stable - however I haven't found a reliable supplier Also 
there is almost no support for them..

I have switched to the grandstream budgetone 102 and they seem pretty 
good too. You can pretty much plug in and forget it with both phones. 
They do lock up occasionally (once a month to once every 3 months). I 
have yet to upgrade the firmware on the grandstreams...
