One Way Calls...

Post by orleepogee »

since this morning, my line wont work as if when i have incoming calls and i tried to answer it I cant hear the caller but they cannot hear me..
I tried both lines (i happen to have two FPL) using a PAP2T ATA, but just the same, the incoming calls are both one-way..

anyone experiencing the same? what should i do?
Help!!!

Your router is crap. The piece of dung you have trying to pass itself as a router lost track of where to route the RTP audio. That is why it is called a router, and it cannot even do that!

For a temporary fix, turn off the ATA, router, and modem. Wait 30 seconds. Turn on modem, wait 30 seconds, then turn on the ATA. That should fix the problem until the next time the router craps out.

Time to look for another router, preferably one that has the option to flash to DD-WRT, if the router firmware is as poor as what you currently have.
