[asterisk-users] Yikes! Polycom 501 chokes on BootRom 4.0.0?

[Mike]

I am having a similar issue with 4.0.0.  Mine is that it doesn't get any
DHCP address (gets stuck waiting for an address).  

I fixed it by going back one to the previous bootrom version, worked like a
charm.

I've upgraded my 501 to bootrom 4.0.0. It did reboot and reformat the
filesystem about three times in a row before it finally finished but it did
work for me. I'm still using SIP 2.1.2 though. Don't know if that
information helps any.
