PAP2 and time from caller ID

BooDaddy · Post by **BooDaddy** » Wed Aug 20, 2008 12:32 am

i am having another issue with my PAP2. Everytime I get a call, the phone resets the time to read 12:00pm on 01/01/03. The phone gets it time from the caller ID stamp. Well, the PAP2 passes this callerID time info that it gets from the magicjack servers. The problem is, I dont think that magicjack is sending any timestams on their callerid packets. So everytime i get a call, the time resets to 12:00pm 01/01/03 on both the ATA and my phone.

I have tried setting the time using the web interface on the ATA, but it doesnt work. Any suggestions?

I believe that ATA is the same as an SPA2102. On mine I set the date and time on the "Adv, Voice, Regional" page and keep it current with a UPS supply. Caller ID works properly for me with this setup.

On the Router->WAN Setup tab, set the "Primary NTP Server" (for example, "pool.ntp.org"). You can add also "Secondary NTP Server", i.e. time.nist.gov - in case the Primary is down.
On the bottom of "Voice->Regional" tab, set your correct timezone, and the "Daylight Saving Time Rule" to:
start=3/8/7/2:00;end=11/1/7/2:00;save=1

Then you won't need to worry about keeping your time current - it will do it for you automatically, including DST adjustments.
