Adapter: Linksys RT31P2

ISP: Local ISP (8MB DN and 1MB UP)

Setup: Behind a Linksys WRT54G wireless router. The adapter is wire-connected to the router.

How often not working: You are not going crazy. I also have my router and adapter almost right in front of me at my desk. A couple of times I have noticed that the Phone 1 and 2 lights are off on the adapter. I pick up the phone and there is no dial tone. I wait a couple minutes and the lights are on again and there is a dial tone. I have not noticed this within the past month, but it has happened. I've read on the forum that the adapter will reboot during the day. I'm not sure how many times per day this happens. Maybe this is what is occurring when the lights go off?

I only report when I know it. I don't know how often it doesn't work when I am not around.

It looks like I am the only one has the problem.

My router and PAP2 are in front of me as well. Since being out of work for the last year I see it about 8hrs a day

, but there are still 16hrs left I can't report on.

I have had numerous OTHER issues but not the PAP dying where it needs a reboot. Maybe that's because I give it a "PAP TEST" every few days. <drum roll>

WHen I first switched to Voipo mine was rebooting every 30-60 minutes but a ticket resolved that and now the reboot is rare. An occassional reboot is one thing but it going offline or just not functioning is another.

I'm a grandfathered BYOD user with my account set up as a trunk line in Asterisk. I have a script monitor all trunks every 5 minutes, and I rarely get a report on the Voipo trunk being down. Gizmo5, on the other hand, is up and down all the time.

I know mine reboots now and then - I'm discussing the times when I happen to notice the reboot and not the times when I don't notice it. It happened a little before 9 am Eastern time today. And, every once in a while a call will go to voicemail - when there's no issue with Internet connectivity. To be fair to VOIPo I don't know what causes the reboots.

I used Voange service 2/3 years ago. They gave me Linksys PAP2 adapter. I don't remember I have similar problems.

I also have an unlocked Linksys PAP2-NA adapter. I am using it with Sipgate + Sip sorcery + Google Voice for a FREE voip service, and have never had any self-disconnected problems. I got couple times no service because the sipsorcery server was down.

I am still working with the Support on the problems and keep you guys update.

Router: WRT54GL (DD-WRT v24 preSP2 build 13064)
ATA: RT31P2
ISP: Comcast (12/2)

Cable Modem -> WRT54GL -> RT31P2

Ever since setting things up this way:
http://forums.voipo.com/showthread.php?t=1919

I haven't noticed the phone being down (Phone 1 always lit). My wife uses the phone probably 200-300 mins per day and hasn't complained once since this setup. In previous configs, the ATA would lose reauth randomly. And trust me, she lets me know every single time something bad happens.

I'm going to try to put Tomato back on the WRT54GL in the above configuration to see if it still works, as I prefer it over DD-WRT.

Well, I just got a call from my wife. She could not get thru on the VoIP. I went downstairs, checked and line 1 & 2 have no lights. Unplugged the TA, waited 5 seconds, and plugged it back in, and it was working again.

Just frustrating. Never had any issues with Call Vantage (Or Sunrocket before them)

I started frustrating since day 5 after I signed up for the service. At least once per day the adapter doesn't work for around 15 minutes. Sometimes 2 or 3 times per day. It will back on.

I checked everyone's feed back. None of you is using the WRT54GS. Sounds like the router doesn't like its Linksys cousin - RT31P2.

At the moment, I am writing this post. The Line1 light is out.

What firmware are you running on the WRT54GS?

I know it might be a pain, but did you try hooking things as described in my post? I'd be curious if that resolved your issue.
