Re: Linksys PAP2 change from Vonage to Broadvoice Yes, I believe you will find the 'completed' solution posted here (or in other VOIP related areas). It just does not make sense to post updates on this sensitive subject.. The Linksys company does read these messages, and might decide to make changes, preventing the possible solution we find from working...
Sorry if that sounds like we are hording the information, but the answer at this moment is: the newer pap2 units that are locked to vonage are not unlockable at this time. Several factors: vonage wont give out the admin password, vonage encrypted the XML config settings (if you dont have the key, you can't load new XML config settings), firmware updates prevent 'plain-text' XML config updates... the list goes on.
Apparently, these PAP2 units are initially staged with a 'bare-bones' XML config. This config is encrypted with a key. vonage (or is it the Linksys factory) has a script written to change the key on the XML config each time a new PAP2 is initially staged. So, forget about thinking that one 'code' will open every unit. That is not going to work. It would not hurt to look at the script from vonage.. Anyone at vonage want to contribute to this project? (it would be a great community service... trust me!  ) |

I have a friend who has an unused Vonage PAP2 and viatalk refused to unlock it to use with its service mainly because viatalk said to her that they have no way to be able to unlock her PAP2 unit locked by Vonage. Perhaps, you are lucky and would like to share your story here so we can at least know how to have our PAP2 units unlocked. |
