[asterisk-users] Cisco SIP 8.5 and 9.0 Issues

[Gerard]

Hi James,
I have a smartNet as well, I contacted cisco for a login, so when I go 
to the support section for 7900 series phones, then hit Download 
Software, it lists this for the 7962G :

8.3(5)
8.3(4)_SR1
8.3(3)_SR2
8.3(3)
8.3(2)_SR1
8.3(2)

kind of an ugly cut&paste, but you get the idea..

now I also have a 7960 phone, and I have the 8.12 firmware loaded on it, 
and it works 99.9% flawless, it just 'forgets' its custom ringtone on 
occasion.
but as you can see, no 8.12 is available for the 7962G..
