[cisco-voip] PLAR with ata 186?

[Ed Leatherman]

I've had trouble with PLAR on ata's.. they work but when the call gets hung
up it had a tendency to dial again long enough to ring once. Not sure if it
has something to do with on-hook timer or what. We tinkered with the
parameters available via the web interface on the ATA but couldnt get it
working correctly. Ended up using a PLAR port on a VG248 instead, works
fine. FXS ports on VG224 also work well, I have ring-downs off of them all
over the place - FXS port in a router should be exactly the same if that's
what you have available.

Might be worth trying if you have time to troubleshoot it.. we were kinda in
crunch mode and only had time for some cursory troubleshooting before we
resorted to putting in a VG. i'm not going to have time to revisit that
particular phone until basketball season is over ><
