Your PAP2 timezone needs to be updated for DST eh?

Take these steps:

- Press **** on your telephone handset

- When you hear “Configuration Menu”, press 110#
- Write down the numbers that play (ex: 192.168.0.101)

- Enter these numbers into a web browser such as Internet Explorer or Firefox

- You should see a Linksys PAP2 configuration page

- On the right hand side, click ‘Admin Login’

- Your username is: admin

- Your password is: youradminpassword

- At the top of the page, click ‘Advanced View’

- Then, click ‘Regional’

- Scroll to the bottom of this page, and look for ‘Time Zone’

- Change this value to the correct GMT timezone for your area [if you’re not sure, goto time.gov]

SAVE SETTINGS.

That’s it. You are done.

Enjoy the correct time, all day. Well… At least until spring.

Its no secret that Sunrocket’s website has been down since August. Those of us who could read noticed they maintained a ‘Members Login’ link at the top of their page which would allow users to obtain the account information required to port their number to a new provider. Those who couldn’t - argued vehemently with others that there was no way to login, but that’s an altogether different post…

Hopefully, anyone planning on retaining their SR number has already had it transferred (or at least has a copy of their billing info). An anonymous source reports that as of Monday, Sunrocket’s control panel has been re-branded with some new Teleblend logos.  It’s only a matter of time before their site is down completely.

On another note, it looks like Sunrocket is making a last ditch effort to gain some cash by billing people who have issued chargebacks for the service they actually used - good luck guys.

Sunrocket sues Vonage too?! LINK

I can’t believe it.

For some of you in the northeast that have been experiencing latency issues with your ISP, it appears that someone had the great idea to shoot a fiber line with a firearm. Apparently, they couldn’t tell if it was shot with a handgun or a shotgun. You would think it would be fairly easy to differentiate, but I’m no expert.

ha. Sounds like this has been a wicked fun week to be a new engineer at Teleblend. How exciting!

I wonder what backbone they’re using?

“Customers of SunRocket Inc., the VOIP company that recently folded, may have hoped their troubles were over when two competitors stepped up to offer them service in the absence of the failed provider.

But for some, transferring to one of the new providers hasn’t proved to be a better option than SunRocket. Some customers that chose to move to Teleblend, one of the companies that offered to buy SunRocket customers, have had poor service this week.” LINK

I was scanning some recent Voip articles today and ran across Debra Littlejohn Shinders’ 10 Things You Should Know About VoIP Over Wireless posted on blogs.techrepublic.com

I don’t know who Debra is - But she makes some valid points about Voip over wireless. I personally think that at this point [voip over wireless] is functional at best. In time it could be as good as wired, but until then, I’ll take mine via ethernet.

Good article to read over if you want to know the basic ins and outs about wireless VoiP.

Number 7 is my personal favorite. LINK

…We’ve gone critical.

Awesome.

I wonder what happens to my sunrocket number now?

I just added a tutorial to get up and running with VTWhite and Asterisk.

We’ll be posting basic examples for extensions.conf in the next few days - in the meantime feel free to send us your suggestions if you think you’ve got something cool.

Edit: Samples added.

We all knew it was going to happen sometime.  Vonage’s stock has dropped over $11 dollars per share in the last year.

I’d hate to be an investor for that…

Check it out.
