@NetworkNerd What about a batch script scheduled to run once an hour at 1:02 and 2:02 as if it's running every five minutes I'm guessing it's 1:00, 1:05, 1:10, etc.
One line batch script.

I'm guessing you're using IE. Just a thought. Quick and dirty albeit not great.

Once @art_of_shred gets the lab up!!

@bill-kindle Go for it!

I've used a Motorola before and it's pretty nice. Was designed for the Xoom but it's good in general as well.

@Dashrender Ok, sorry about that. Misread a couple things.

@Semicolon Wait, say what?! o.0

@dashrender I don't think you understand. If you have a computer at a location, it has a line. Plug that line into the VoIP phone. The phone as a port that goes from the phone to the computer. One "backbone" line you could say for two devices. No need for PoE or injectors because phones are powered via AC plugs. As far as licensing, yea, spend the money on new phones. Elastix has no licensing limitations or extensions cap, etc. What's the issue here? All you need is the extra 3 ft Cat 5e/6 cables.

@Dashrender Have an S4 as well. Do you use Swype? If not, use it. I can't do without it. I was on a Windows 8 phone (@minion-queen) for a while and the worst part was no Swype or similar feature. Drove me absolutely batty!

@Dashrender Do you not have the drops necessary for another cable? As far as PoE, why? I'm assuming you're using desktops at most workstations. Just passthrough the phone to the computer so you have one line back to the switch/patch panel and you don't need extra drops. Replacing the system and not the phones would be a foolish move IMO.

@dashrender I'm thinking for a VoIP system if you are replacing the backbone of th esystem, replace the phones. No point preserving ancient technology. Like trying to preserve XP. Waste of time and money. Just getting ideas.

@NetworkNerd I like it! I LIKE IT A LOT!!

@Dashrender Let me ask you this:

Assuming you got all new phones, how many would you need?
Basic phone (make/take calls, transfer, hold, conference in):
Conference room phone:
Secretary phones:
Anything else:
TOTAL =

What is your internal infrastructure like? Things like a hot/cold model could work if you don't need 99.9999% uptime with a VM locally and a failover in the colo or even a second local instance. Or an on-premise and cloud failover solution works too. Either way.

@NetworkNerd That sounds pretty stinkin' cool!

@Minion-Queen YOU?! No!! Can it be?!
