Linksys SPA2102 interfearing with winmx/360 sharepro, frequently resetting connection

I have comcast service through a scientifis atlantic DCP2100R2 modem. My voip.com phone adapter is a linksys SPA2102. When I bypass the voip/linksys, I can search, download and upload to others with no problems. But when I have the phone adapter installed, I am unable to share or stay online. I am getting a green light for a primary and a secondary connection in both winmx and 360sharepro, but d/l and u/l search for connection and always fail, I can get file search results on a secondary connection , but nothing in a primery connection. I thought it was a problem in my comcast modem, so I got a new one from comcast. Comcast records show my old modem was resetting over 100 times in 48 hr. With the new modem, I still have nortons security taskbar pop up telling me I am connected to a trusted network several times a day, AFTER I reinstalled the linksys. I did not initally connect it through the linksys and all worked fine. Everything is properly installed per installation directions on voip.com. I have tried re-setting both devices, no change.....btw, the linksys does get hot. I have read the other posts for linksys.....
I hope you can help me with this. I will be very appreciative of any help you can offer.....

    This is NOT Vonage phone service...........it is voip.com

  • lil min Sep 17, 2008

    Windows firewall is turned off, using nortons only and yes ports are allowed. I only have the cable modem and the voip phone adapter, no router. I don't have any problem until I add the the linksys phone adapter.

If your planning to connect the phone adapter behind a router make sure that the following ports are open/forwarded on the router; UDP ports 5060-5061, UDP ports 16384-32767 take note that 5060 and 5051 one are SIP ports and must be assigned to the IP address of that was assigned to by the router to the adapter or the IP that was manually configured on it.

I found a link that could help you check the setting on your linksys phone adapter

Spa2102-r does not connect my phone. My new ISP does not help me to make a configuration. The unit worked perfectly with the earlier ISP.

You may need to reset your device and you will see a reset button at back of your router so all you need is to keep holding it for 10 seconds then unplug the power jack for like 1 min and then your device shall be reset.But please make sure to backup your all settings first.

Need to add Linksys WRT54G-TM wireless router with Linksys SPA 2102 phone adapter

your SPA2102-R seems to have one ethernet connection and one internet connection.
your WRT54G-TM seems to have one internet connection and 4 ethernet connections.

What you are trying to achive is; plug a ethernet cable into the ethernet connection on your SPA2102-R then plug the other end into the internet port of the WRT54G-TM

hope this helps, I have assumed that you intend to use a DSL broadband supplier not ADSL.

if you are changing service from DSL to ADSL then your WRT54G-TM needs to be first in line configured and working. then plug the internet port from the SPA2102-R into any of the WRT54G-TM ethernet ports.
