Issue:
After adding Ringotel to my Fusion PBX system, my connected Polycom phones stopped ringing—all calls started routing only through Ringotel, bypassing the desk phones. While Ringotel acts as an endpoint, I expected all devices (desk phones and the app) to ring simultaneously.

Observations:

  • When I deactivate an extension in Ringotel, the Polycom phone reappears in the Fusion PBX registration list.
  • The Polycom phones still appear registered on their LCD screens and can make outbound calls, but they vanish from the PBX server’s registration list.
  • Rebooting the phones makes them reappear briefly before disappearing again.
Goal:
I want to use Ringotel only as a softphone/desktop companion, not to replace my desk phones. I don’t want to manually add the Polycom phones to Ringotel’s system.

Question:
Has anyone experienced this? If so, how did you resolve it?
 
@Jasonpbx Most likely your Poly phone and your Ringotel softphone are fighting for the same extension, overriding each other upon every registration attempt. Look into these Sofia profile settings multiple-registrations and max-registrations....something (can't remember exactly what it is called)
