| reply to fareal Re: [ViaTalk] viatalk down again Sept 10 and NO Support
said by fareal :But I also noticed last night in the VT CP it kept showing different servers.. chicago, new york, houston, although my primary is sanfrancisco. Is that the way it works.. In your phone adapter it always shows your primary in the proxy field but the VT Control Panel shows the one you're actually connected to for the time being? That would be my guess. I'm BYOD, with my adapter configured to richmond-1 and SRV records enabled. Earlier, my adapter showed newyork-1; it's back to richmond-1 now. |

| Fisamo,
Do you have dynamic enabled on your VT control panel. I tried enabling mine this morning and it wouldn't let me. Thought maybe that BYOD couldn't use it since VT doesn't have control over my device. -- FWD#: 223611 |

| You can setup the use of SRV records on your device if you would like, however you are correct in stating that the changes you make via your CP will have no effect upon your device.

| There is absolutly something going on specific to your account/adapter. Please give our tech support team a call and have them work through it so that your service will begin functioning normally again.

| reply to henryliu99 Brendan, I believe it. Unfortunately, I have spent a cumulative of approximately 4 hours worth of phone support time (mostly on hold) already and have submitted several tickets (one is still open as of about a week ago), and none of your techs have been able to point me in the right direction. So, getting in touch with support is really not as practical -- nor has it been as beneficial -- as it sounds.
Your service worked great for a few months; not a single problem until August, then everything went to hell. I didn't make any changes that might have caused the problem, so I am at the mercy of your company to tell me what changes you made and what I need to do to accomodate the changes. I've given it an honest effort, but the effort has so far just been frustrating and fruitless. |

  VTBrendan Viatalk Premium,VIP join:2005-06-27 Clifton Park, NY | I'm not sure if you have any free time right now, but if you do hold times are under 5 mins.

| Brendan, I just called in and started as caller number 9. Waited five minutes, was still caller number 9. Had to go. I really don't have time for this anymore. In my experience in your queue, 9 callers means an hour of hold time. I'm not sure where your 5 minutes figure is coming from.
I appreciate your personal efforts to help, but for whatever reason, your personal efforts aren't rippling down to a support organization that I can rely on for getting my service back on track. I wish you the best with the company; as I said earlier, my first few months with it were fantastic. |

  tommy13v Premium join:2002-02-15 Glenville NY | Everytime he says 5 minutes its actually more like 35.
Come to think of it I think I have only see him say 5 minutes hold time everytime.
Whatever. -- Asterisk Extras |

| reply to ropeguru As VTBrendan said, the control panel settings don't matter. Before I realized that, I tried setting dynamic on the control panel, and it would give me an error stating "Please choose a server first."
dcurrey posted the settings that enable the dynamic routing for BYOD users in this post. |

| reply to pdivi said by pdivi :Currently caller #15 in the support queue, which means at least a one hour wait. Based on my experience, #15 will be much longer than 1 hour. I just called ViaTalk to get some changes made to my ATA provisioning. I timed how long I was on hold. I started the call at #9 in the queue. It took 1 hour, 6 minutes and 45 seconds before the call was answered.

No real problems on our side right now, if you're having trouble connecting now would be a good time to call and have someone take a look at it for you, wait times are under 2 mins.

I was first in line (I do not have priority support). Glad to see the wait times down (at least at this hour of the day). A very good sign. |
