Known Issues
- SIP ALG will cause problems if it's enabled, but it can be disabled on at least one of the firmware versions.
- MTU is set to Auto by default, which can set it to 576, which is too low. This will cause intermittent phone feature failures & call audio (RTP) to be lost mid-calls.
- We need more information on this router to find out if the other basic router requirements can be made on this router.
- Please contact UNIVERGE BLUE® Voice Technical Support so we can better document other necessary changes that need to be made to this router.
Resolution
- Log into the router.
- Go to Firewall > Basic Settings > SIP ALG > Uncheck > Save.
*This has changed on firmware v.1.0.6.6 and later. Now Go to Firewall > Advanced Settings > SIP ALG > SIP ALG > Uncheck "Enable" > Save.
- If there isn't an option to disable SIP ALG, the IT or a tech-savvy individual will need to call Cisco for help upgrading the router to the latest firmware version.
- If the router is running the latest firmware and it still doesn't have the option to disable SIP ALG, then you will need to replace the router with a compatible one.
- Change the MTU from Auto to one of the options below.
- This setting is usually found under Networking > WAN.
- Your router may reference 'WAN' as Internet Settings or with slightly different terminology, depending on the firmware:
- 1500 for Cable
- 1492 for DSL
- FiOS using PPPoE (most pre-2006 FiOS circuits) – 1492
- FiOS using DHCP (most post-2006 FiOS circuits) -- 1500
- Contact your ISP if you're unsure.
- This step is only needed if you have or plan to purchase Polycom phones.
- The steps below only apply if you are using the RV220W as the DHCP server:
- Go to Networking > LAN > LAN Configuration > Set the following:
*This has changed on firmware v.1.0.6.6 and later. Now Go to Networking > LAN > IPv4 LAN
- Primary DNS Server - "8.8.8.8".
- Secondary DNS Server - "8.8.4.4".
- LAN Proxy - DNS Proxy - Uncheck.
- Click Save.
- Go to Networking > LAN > LAN Configuration > Set the following:
- The steps below only apply if you are using the RV220W as the DHCP server:
- This optional step is needed for call quality monitoring and troubleshooting purposes:
- Go to Firewall > Attack Protection > Enable Respond to Ping on WAN (Internet) > Save.
- Note: Leave all other firewall settings on this page unchanged.
- The Firewall, SPI, and DoS protection do not need to be disabled.
- If QoS options are available in your particular firmware version, the following steps can be taken:
