Hmmm... A random statement out of the blue... I assume that you meant
to add "Does any kind soul have a suggestion to help out?" :-)

I find that the snom phones can be over-sensetive to network glitches,
which with the default configuration can cause a reboot (usually
caused by cheap switches). Try changing the reboot on ethernet unplug
setting to "ignore".

It helps here.
