W52P drops network

[mannebk]

Hi Folks,

were running 2 W52p bases with VPN. One of em started today to drop its LAN link in a 7/5 sec rhythm.

Both are far away from the VOIP Server.

See picture of ping running to the base.

We did not change anything in the past 6 weeks on the network or voip configs.

If you have a call on this base, the phone call is active all the time, but you cant hear each other in the 7/5 secund rhythm. 7 seconds you could talk, 5 seconds its quiet in both ways.

calling and receiving a call is no problem, also it does not ring while the link is down. (no surprise :-) )

I have no clue as to what this could be.

It started with the handset saying it could not find the base several times, so we rebooted base and handsets.

Then this funny thing showed its ugly head.

I have not yet done a factory values reset, since its remote and actually i cant reach the base anymore after the VPN setting would be gone.

We rebooted every single equipment between the VIOP Server and the Base, no change.

Ah, yes, were still running the .27 firmware. never had an issue, i'm a bit afraid to upgrade now, as i dont know if the firmware ends up with the base due to loss of connectivity.

Please advise.
Thanks.
Manne

Funny, just for "why not" i did a reboot from the web interface.

Problem gone.

While a "pull all cables" and wait for 5 minutes did not change anything.

WTF????
