Author Topic: DPH-50U shuts down, can't place or receive calls consistently  (Read 5494 times)

Utility shuts down after completing a call, or receiving a call.  Have installed, and re-installed multiple times with same results.  These questions were asked earlier but had no response other than maybe a malfunctioning device ... are there a lot of those out there?  Maybe a bad batch?  Also, when it does "work" I have to answer incoming calls from the Skype interface first, then the phone works.  Any ideas?

No; the problem you are experiencing is very rare.  You may have a defective unit if all is installed properly.

I am dubious as to the rarity of this issue, since I also have it. What is the process for getting these defective units replaced?

You can either return it to the point of purchase for a swap or call technical support at 1-877-453-5465 for assistance.

I had same problem and I call customer service.  The staff suggest to install the driver ver. 1.1 from website (my one was ver.1.0).  After I installed the version, I think Ok.  You can try it.

Hey Folks,

I just received my second defective unit for this "rare" issue.  If your DPH-50U suddenly drops a call after some random time (I've not made it past 20 minutes) and you are told by the engineer in this forum and by customer service that you have a "defective unit" don't bother returning it and getting a replacement.
 
Return it, get your money back and go buy another brand. 

These "engineers" seem to be more interested in making excuses than solving problems.  I'm no novice to technical problems - did everything they asked - upgraded drivers - multiple workstation installations.  Two defective units in a row = poor quality control.

D-Link Customer Support's advice - return the second unit for a third....  no chance, wasted enough of my life on D-Link products.

Good luck,

Peter
