In this post I will show you how to connect & configure one IpPhone Linksys SPA942 using an Asterisk Pbx 1.8: I hope this can help you with other similar IpPhones (Linksys SPA942 is in “End-of-sale “)
To start you have to verify the firmware version used by the phone: connect to the web interface on the IpPhone and check the info tab check.
To get the Ipphone fully working make sure you have the latest phone firmware 6.1.5(a) that is possible to dowload using the link in linkografia.
Att.: To log to the phone you need to get the IP Address of the phone: you can get it using the settings button, then pressing 9. Once you’re logged into the phone, we need to log in and switched to advanced: click Admin Login & after Advanced.
Att.: Inside the zip file related the update there is a exe that upgrade the phone automatically: you have only to specify the IpPhone Ip Address !
Before launch the upgrade you have to set the Provisioning/Firmware/Upgrade Enable parameter to yes.
In Asterisk I have configured an extension (SIP) named Paolo, and with user 201 password paolo201: here the parameters in the Linkys SPA942 to use this account.
Select the Regional tab, where I will set up the regional parameter related to Italy.
