Aastra 55i hangs up instantly - both incoming and outgoing

I could use some help. I have FreePBX running fine with an X-Lite softphone and a Linksys PAP2T-NA adapter. Not so great is the Aastra 6755i, which was working fine, but now hangs up instantly after either placing a call or receiving one. On outbound, the call is actually placed, then is disconnected immediately. On an outboud VoIP trunk, the hangup occurs just as the VoIP trunk provider records the call in the CDR. When calling internally, the receiving extension rings normally, and the call is hung up as soon as it is answered. I am stymied. I was changing some configuration settings in the phone prior to this starting, but nothing that I have not changed back, but to no avail.

Here are some lines from the Asterisk call log… I was just dialing *79, and as you can see, there are several calls to “macro-hangupcall.”

Can someone assist me?

Many thanks!

I seem to have been able to fix the problem. What ultimately worked was to force the phone into “Web Recovery” mode, which is done by holding down the “1” and “#” buttons simultaneously as soon as the logo appears on power-up.

This puts the phone in a mode in which all you can do is log on via a web browser and give it parameters for a firmware download from your server.

My phone actually required two firmware downloads, because on the Web Recovery D/L, it said the server download was successful, but it actually restored the ROM-based default firmware in th phone.

The second download from the server overwrote the default version and left the phone ready to configure and now it works fine again.

Still not sure what I did to mess it up in the first place, but I will be MUCH more careful in the future!

I appreciate the suggestions that were offered.
