We are having the strangest issue that I have seen for some time. A customer of ours with Polycom phones (4x ip335, 2x ip550) will occasionally (maybe 1 in 50 calls) hear ringing on the line along with the other party. It has happened on both incoming and outgoing calls across apparently all of the phones. We use ip550 in our office and have never had such a problem (we run the same firmware as well, although their hardware is newer). It can be fixed if the person using the phone puts the other person on hold and then takes them off hold. They have just been doing this by double pressing hold so the other party doesn't even realize it.
Is this a ringback tone heard in the handset, or is the loudspeaker in the phone base playing audible ringing? Does the icon for the call show two-way arrows? What SIP platform? We've not seen this and have hundreds of Polycom phones in service, mostly on a Broadsoft platform. -- Jay Hennigan - CCIE #7880 - Network Engineering - jay at impulse.net Impulse Internet Service - http://www.impulse.net/ Your local telephone and internet company - 805 884-6323 - WB6RDV
