I have 16 total Grandstream gateways in our environment.  Many of the ports on these gateways initiate outbound "ghost" calls dialing +11, +12, +122, and so many other combinations but never a complete number.  My company manages retirement communities and we manage about 25% of our resident phones through the Grandstream gateways.  I opened a ticket with Grandstream, but they keep giving me solutions to INBOUND "ghost" calls, which I do not have an issue.  Has anyone seen this in their environment?

Hi,We have BLF keys on our Poly phones but they are not showing up on the workplace windows or phone app. We are only able to see the parked lines. How do we display the blf keys so users can call each other and see their line status.

We have been looking at the Zoom Phone system QOS to determine why some clients are reporting poor sound quality occurring 1-2 times per week. To be more specific, callers are reporting that our user sounded distorted or echo-ey while we heard clearly from them. We ran a certification on the wired network ports, patch cables, and phone cables. We were able to look at specific events, and the QOS showed that they were 4.1-4.5 good quality calls. The only commonality I could see between them was that they all showed a 12kbps sending bitrate when known good calls showed a 50-75kbps sending bitrate. Zooms website says that bandwidth needs are 60-100kbps for calls. Could this actually be the cause of the poor sound quality? If the recommended bandwidth is 60-100 kbps, why is it rating a 12kbps call is good quality?

Hi,  Our zoom phone system went live last week, so we are still in adjustment period. Several users have mentioned that if they are typing in a document/email etc.  and then receive an incoming phone call, Zoom "steals" the keyboard and they have to click back into their other application to continue to type.  We tried turning off keyboard shortcuts user by user and testing some incoming calls but that had no effect - typing was still interrupted each time a call popped up on screen. Does anyone know if this is a setting that we can turn off? Or just a minor annoyance we have to deal with? Thanks!-Lauren 

A couple months ago I noticed the Zoom Phone Assistant stopped consistently staying on top of other windows. It keeps getting lost behind browser windows making it difficult to see incoming calls, as they do not show in the main app with it enabled. Is anyone else experiencing this issue or have a resolution? I'm using Zoom Workplace 6.6.1 - Windows 11

Hi,I have not easily found the answer to this on the Zoom website, and I did speak with a sales rep on the phone this afternoon, but what she told me doesn't seem to match up with what I'm seeing on the official Zoom site.I want a package with VOIP and meetings, with a signed BAA for HIPAA compliance. The rep told me that I can do this. However, there is no option for the BAA when checking out online (one of the reasons for my skepticism). Is there a way to combine these two? Perhaps I'm missing something very obvious on the site.Thank you.

Zoom Phoneで自身のスマホアプリやPCアプリで通話録音内容を確認したいのですが、設定は間違っていなさそうで、8月以降自分の録音がダウンロードできず、ここが間違っていそうというのはわかりますでしょうか?管理者画面の[電話システム管理]-[ログ]のほうからは通話履歴と録音は確認できるのですが、スマホとPCのZoomアプリから確認できない状況です。ユーザーアカウントでは自動レコーディングオンとアクセスメンバーに自身を設定しており、別なアカウントではスマホアプリで録音データが正しく再生できる人もいます。 

Help, we are frustrated.  Our users have access to listen to the recordings that they manually initiate on outbound calls, but cannot listen to the inbound calls that the answers and are automatically recorded.  Their individual settings give them permission to listen to recordings and there is no place to specificy inbound, outbound, both.  Is there another setting someplace? 

Currently, if a call is transferred to a queue, the queue users see only the caller ID of the person transferring the call, not the original caller's number. It makes it difficult when queue users need to go back and reference a caller's number. Is there a way to change this?

Hello,  We recently installed multiple MP1288s in our environment.  We have a large number of Cortelco 255400VBA-20M phones spread throughout our campus.  Currently we are experiencing an issue where the phones do not ring loud enough to be heard.  The sound is a muffled clicking.  I have found that when you slide the volume adjuster to the halfway point on the phones, they can be heard but not loud enough for most areas.  I am currently troubleshooting this issue with an Audiocodes tech, but still have not figured out a way to get the volume of the bell loud enough.  Has anyone ever come across this problem?  I have checked the firmware.  We have attempted to change the Trapezoid Ring Parameter, to no avail.  Any help would be appreciated. 

We initially started experiencing calls that would not route to our support phone.Calls began to route properly the dropped and disconnected midway.

Hello,We're currently migrate on Zoom phone and one of big restriction we've identified is the video support of 2N intercom directly with the zoom application without a video-capable IP phones.Indeed, our user are using the video to identified the person at the door to open it directly from their desk (via dtmf code). On our previous phone solution, video worked directly on the softphone and deskphone.We can use 2N specific app on workstation but it's a big challenge with the number of intercoms and contacts.So, we are requesting that Zoom support 2N intercom video with Zoom desktop / mobileBest regards

I was using zoom phone plan.But I forgot to pay the invoice until due date so my plan is ended now.I want to resubscribe again and use the numbers I was using previously again.How should I do?

We have a few VIP staff members that have all of their calls screened by their Administrative assistants. We have hidden the VIP staff from the directory, and have a queue setup with their name so the their admin assistants can take them. The problem is that when a VIP makes a call to a staff member, their extension shows on the receiving end. This has caused their extension to be leaked and they are now receiving calls directly. Their phones should always, always, always go to the Admin assistants first. Their phone should not ring except for a incoming intercom.In our previous on-prem solution, we could make the outbound caller ID show as private without their extension number showing. We need a solution that will anonymize their internal extension number. 

There is currently a 5-7 second delay when selecting one Auto Receptionist option on our phone system. Is it possible to reduce the time it takes for the next set of prompts to be announced?

how to acquire Zoom phone Number? do i need to buy a phone number license or do we need additional cost to acquire phone number, for example  i want to call US  

Hi all, Manually adding members to a Call Queue's Voicemail Access Member list one at a time is very tedious and time consuming. Please can we have an option to automatically add all Call Queue Members into the Voicemail Access Member list? Or, at least let us add more than one user at a time and not have to click each little tick box for the permission we want to give them? Many thanks,D

Hi, I'm new to Zoom.  The system assigned me an extension number which I do not need as I am a small business owner and I am the only one that will be using the telephone number.  I want people to be able to call me directly on the number assigned without them having to enter an extension number.  How do I fix this?  I've looked at other posts but was unable to get it working properly.  Thank you!

I have a voicemail greeting recorded and turned on and "Forward to Voicemail" is set but the greeting won't play. I just get the auto attendant. I can't figure out why it won't play.

Save time and reduce context switching with fax functionality with Zoom with the FaxSIPit app.   No matter how many ways there are to send documents, the need to send a fax remains. But faxes transmitted over VoIP can suffer from low image quality — a challenge that FaxSIPit has helped solve. Faxing is still used by businesses in healthcare, finance, law, and real estate, with security often top of mind for customers. And FaxSIPit provides the faxing they need, right from Zoom.

Nobody seems to know if my pixel 10 phone supports virtual background 

We are testing SMS to confirm some appointments with homeowners. Is there a way that we can change the SMS/Caller ID to show our 800 # (we are able to do this with phone calls). Currently when we send a text message the receiver will get a "Potential Spam" ID or the personal phone number of the employee on their phone. We do not wish to do this because our teams are on queue and no one should be calling their personal ext or phone number for work.  Nor do we want our customers to have the Caller ID say Potential Spam. Please advise. Thank you. 

Hello: I have the setting "Receive calls while on a call" enabled for my sequential call queue. When the first agent, however, is on a call either from the queue or their personal line, if another call comes in on the queue, it skips to the next available agent in the sequential queue list.   I found the below in the documentation from Call Handling:Note: You will not receive call notifications from call queues if you're currently on a call or have disabled calls from call queues. I want Agent 1 to be able to receive notification of another call combining on the call queue regardless if Agent 1 is on another call or not. Is this possible?

I work for a large auto group and we've submitted a feature request asking for the ability to opt-out of queue calls ringing on mobile, but not desktop and desk phone. A lot of our staff members have requested that ONLY direct dial calls ring to their cell, but not queue calls.  Anyone else interested in this enough to put in a feature request on it to help push it along?
