There were tons of issues involving the generated configurations (such
as not being able to use attended or unattended transfers) but the worst
issue was that the box would not hang up POTS lines.  We had four lines
plugged into this and slowly each would be stuff off-hook.   These four
lines were in a hunt group and eventually you'd not be able to get an
inbound call.  We found out when someone called us on a cell phone to
let us know that our number had been busy for hours.  The only way to
clear the problem was to reboot it and we ended up doing that multiple
times per day.

We engaged the vendor who sold us the box who put us in touch with the
manufacturer of the box who put is in touch with the gang who wrote the
interface.  No one could figure this out.   We even tried swapping
boxes, to no avail.  The net result was that the distributer took it
back and refunded our money.
