Spotlight customer reviews:
Customer Rating: Summary: functional Comment: I was able to connect to my WEP enabled wireless network and register a SIP connection to my openpbx installation with relative ease. The sound quality seems pretty good. However, there are several shortcomings for this phone. The battery life is abysmal. I can get maybe 36 hours of standby. The documentation is spotty. I tried to perform a firmware upgrade, but the web interface doesn't seem to work. Maybe it's just me and the lack of documentation. The phone itself seems to provide some upgrade tool, but the documentation does not mention it and the Linksys site provides no URLs matching its configuration. The buttons feel cheap, but work passably well. In summary, as my title indicates the phone is functional. I would recommend shopping around for a better alternative. Customer Rating: Summary: Smooth Config, Sound Quality Awesome Comment: The config was smooth. The Web GUI is easy to navigate. Sound quality is great. You can hear the voice easily overtop of loud background noises(ie - hydrualic machines). Should plan on setting up Qos on wireless. Customer Rating: Summary: ... Comment: It works very well. It's simple and easy to setup. But I can't call other contacts by name (type and store in memory characters). Customer Rating: Summary: no more bills!! Comment: I received my linksys wip300 2 weeks ago since then, my phone is on and perfectly working.
The signal is always excellent at the office, at home and sometimes in the street with open wifi connection! I use my phone with the French ISP called Free, can't complain.
Definitely worth the $.
