Thought you guys might get a chuckle out of this.
I guess after getting a taste of the cool-aid I deserve what I had coming. Today I noticed one of my voip lines wasn't sending the proper CPC signal, causing abandoned calls to stay on hold forever. Like all day, after my brother in law put me on hold and forgot about me and I come home at 9:30 at night to see the little line light winking at me across the garage. So I reboot the gizmo, and no love. The other identical gizmo is working right, and the other two voip devices (comcast and obihai) are working just fine. Each drops battery for a short time and lets the system release like its supposed to do. I spent an hour on the phone with someone from, I'm guessing India, trying to explain what calling party control is and why it needs to work again. To his credit he listened to me and -finally- understood what it is and why it's important that it works. My trouble ticket was elevated to the next level of support. We'll see.
