333Re: Looking for bootrom.bin

by smartfuture, Wednesday 04 of June, 2008 [13:42:11 UTC]
Justin,

To me it sounds like you might just need the firmware, not the bootrom. Does the phone startup when you press the left menu key and the power/on-hook button? And if so, do you get into a menu where you can choose to set network and upgrade firmware? That menu is the bootrom menu. If it works you can load new firmware from a tftp server. drop me line if you need the firmware package.
You can also upgrade the bootrom with the menu, but the procedure is not straightforward.
If the bootrom menu does not work, then I presume you;'re in trouble.

333IP5000E Firmware and Bootrom

by lennys26, Friday 02 of May, 2008 [12:07:48 UTC]
I have an IP5000E and am wondering about the most up-to-date firmware for it. Specifically, I am looking to have WPA-PSK support, which my current firmware does not have.

Also, can someone advise as to exactly what the bootrom is and as to the advantages (or necessity) to upgrading?

Current Config:
Firmware: v2.2.6 LA1 (recently upgraded from v2.0.1)
Bootrom: v1.0.3

Thanks.

333Good Experiences with IP5000

by eric_ozrelic, Friday 08 of December, 2006 [03:22:27 UTC]
Phone: WirelessIP5000A
Firmware: v2.4.2
SIP Server: Asterisk

I recently purchased this phone as a replacement for the UTStarcom F3000 which I had horrible experiences with. So far my experience with the Hitachi has been excellent! Everything has been pretty easy to configure, and there are more settings available on this phone then any other VoIP phone I've used.

I found out despite the feature set only listing 802.11b compatibility, it apparently supports both B and G!! In the web menu I found a setting for B/G, and I turned it on and rebooted the phone. I checked my AP, and it tells me that it's associated at 54mbps!!!

The only issues we've had are WPA-TKIP compatibility with our Cisco 1200 series AP, however we didn't try very hard, and just ended up using WEP. We also had a very small problem with the phone converting the #<ext number> format that we use, to %23<ext number>. Asterisk didn't like this. We found that we had to disable the "Check Escape Of Call Number" the web admin under the SIP settings and then everything was ok.

Range is on par with F3000, we were able to go outside of the building and make calls from within 75 feet, as long as we didn't put any large obstructions between the phone and the AP. Call quality was excellent, even when the signal started getting bad. It would cut out a little, but the conditions were pretty extreme. So far we've been very impressed by this phone. The user interface, and general feel of the phone is very snappy. Everything is quick about it including wifi association, and SIP registration.

The phone has the look and feel of a polished, well designed product and would recommend it for anyone that's looking for a well built phone.

333WIP5000 GSM Codec supported only the phones of Hardware-Oasis.com

by voipling, Thursday 16 of November, 2006 [18:29:48 UTC]
Hi,

only the Hitachi Cable WIP3000 / WIP5000 phones of Hardware-Oasis.com suported the GSM Codec !

Hardware-Oasis.com have a special firmware with GSM Codec (Exclusiv Sales). If you buy this phone by other shop's it's not upgradable to GSM Codec, I have tested with the firmware of Hardware-Oasis. I buy me a new phone of this Distributor and analyse the firmware, the works with v2.2.6.

Notice: GSM Codec must order optional

Regards Voipling

333Does the WirelessIP5000E now support WPA or multiple SIP registrars?

by samwise, Thursday 16 of November, 2006 [18:18:22 UTC]
Hi,

1) Does anyone know if any of the latest (2.1.11, 2.2.1 and/or 2.2.6) WirelessIP5000E firmware releases support WPA encryption? This is the phone without the flower-shaped speaker cut out of the rear of the handset.

2) Similarly, do any of the above firmware releases allow registration with more than one registrar yet?

If anyone has this information, could they please update the WIP-5000 Limitations section, even if it's just to confirm the same limitations apply to the latest firmware.

Unfortunately, I don't have a suitable device with which to determine this.

Thanks,

Sam.
