Cisco SPA112 + NETGEAR Orbi + Fritzbox (nur als Modem) - ich kann kein Fax versenden

Hallo!

 

Ich habe heute mein NETGEAR Orbi (RBR20) bekommen und versuche seit einigen Stunden mein Cisco SPA112 (siehe https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/unified-communications/spa112-2-port-phone-adapter/index.html) anzuschließen. Ich benötige mein Fax-Gerät beruflich.

 

(1) Die Fritzbox 7580 agiert lediglich als Modem (WLAN ist deaktiviert).

(2) NETGEAR Orbi (RBR20) agiert als WLAN System.

(3) Das Cisco SPA112 ist via LAN-Kabel an einen Satellite angeschlossen.

 

Das NETGEAR Orbi (RBR20) Gerät erkennt das Cisco SPA112 Gerät als "IP Phone" an - ich gehe mal davon aus, dass das richtig ist.

 

Ich habe bereits ein Forum-Beitrag gefunden, welches offenbar das selbe Problem schildert, jedoch nicht die genaue Lösung erklärt (siehe https://community.netgear.com/t5/Orbi/Cisco-SPA112-ATA-Voip-and-Orbi-are-not-friends/td-p/1842034).

 

Könnte mir vielleicht jemand helfen? Ich würde mich freuen!

 

Liebe Grüße

 

Danny

    I don't want the Orbi router to interact as an "access point". I bought the Orbi router because the Fritzbox's WiFi is terribly bad.

     

    What exactly do you mean by "DHCP Server"?

     

    Thank you for your help!


    The Orbi router actic as an access point still uses its WIFI power and gives you the WIFI coverage you need. It just no longer ussies IP addresses to what's connected to it. 

    I'm pretty sure from your description that the Fritzbox is distributing IP addresses, unless you went into the settings and changed it to bridge mode and disabled the DHCP server. 

    DHCP Server is a network server that automatically provides and assigns IP addresses, default gateways and other network parameters to client devices

    Is your Fritzbox 7580 acting as a DHCP server as well as your Orbi router?

    Maybe try putting the Orbi in AP mode and see if it works.
