Hey folks,
I've been using the FreePhoneLine service (with the buy-your-own-ATA and get a VOIP unlock key route) for a year now. I've also ported my telephone number from my childhood days into that service as well. I use the Cisco SPA122 VOIP ATA with the following details:
Model: SPA122, LAN, 2 FXS
Hardware Version: 1.1.0
Boot Version: 1.3.1 (Dec 11 2013 - 17:43:53)
Firmware Version: 1.4.1SR1 (002) Aug 2 2017
Recovery Firmware: 1.3.0 (001)
Lately, I've began to suffer some issues when listening to voicemail messages that callers left on my FPL voicemail mailbox. Sometimes, whenever I listen to a caller's voicemail message, the message suddenly cut short. The caller was not aware about that issue, but I began to witness this myself when I hear the caller's voicemail message that was left.
I then began a series of tests of calling my FPL number from another phone and recorded my message in full. I then play back my voicemail message of the same message that I had left - and the test messages that I had left - were able to play in full without a hitch.
My Cisco VOIP ATA was hooked up to a Linksys Dual-Band RE6500 WiFi range extender (software version 1.0.05). That Wi-Fi extender bridge is linked to my Rogers Hitron CODA-4582 internet modem downstairs in the living room.
To summarize, this is how my network was set up:
Cisco SPA122 VOIP ATA --> Linksys RE6500 Wi-Fi Extender --> Rogers Hitron CODA-4582 modem
I was wondering if my network setup could play a role on hearing the voicemail messages left by other callers - that were cut short unexpectedly? Or is it something that happen at FPL/Fongo's end? Please advise on a solution.
