Hi there,

Thanks for letting me know. I can confirm that this is not from server side. I have tested this at the back end had no issues,

If you have a Panasonic cordless phone, that could be a problem- depending on the firmware version on your ATA.

Thanks,

Hi there,

I am sorry but I have asked you to do a full power off of the equipment- not reset.

Please follow the steps below:

Try to power off equipment- modem, wireless router and ata for at least 15-20 minutes and connect again after 20 minutes starting with the modem.

This will resolve the issue.

Please try and let me know.

Thanks,
senos

That's what I did
full power off of the equipment- not reset

It's ok I can turn off Message waiting indicator in my SIP device. E-mail notification is sufficient for me.

Please see my post here: http://forum.fongo.com/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=9828#wrap.

The MWI activating or deactivating after many hours problem has been plaguing FPL for years before but it appeared that it was fixed some months ago. Unfortunately, the issue is back now and this is indeed very frustrating.
