Grandstream HT801...

Postby Barryere » 01/03/2019

Hello,

I am trying to log into the Grandstream HT801 but it tells me the info I give it is invalid.

I looked on Grandstream's website and Fongo and both places say the admin password is by default "admin".

I am using Firefox and the Grandstream device is connected to my TP Link router which my computer is also wired to.

Help...?

Title says it all..

Default password "admin" does not work. It tells me my credentials are invalid.

I sent in a support ticket only to be given an unacceptable answer; Fongo DOES NOT give you ACCESS to your VOIP device that YOU AS A CUSTOMER PAID FOR WITH YOUR OWN MONEY.

I once had some respect for Fongo but unfortunately it seems one of few good things about Fongo is its call quality.

I am not impressed, with Fongo or any service.

They do if you stop using the service (port out, for example) and submit a ticket requesting that the device not be tied to their provisioning server. Afterwards, the ATA can then be used with any BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) SIP service provider. Otherwise, Fongo Home Phone does control provisioning of the service on the ATA (it's not a BYOD service); the user doesn't. Conversely, Freephoneline is a BYOD service, and users configure their own devices.

The password should work, however, for firmware updates. Otherwise, I'm not sure what the point is in publishing that the password is "admin": https://support.fongo.com/hc/en-us/arti ... ream-HT801.
