- It may be that your ringing signal is different than the North American one,
- where we get anywhere between 50-100vac at 20hz for 2s on and 4s off.
-
- ZyXEL has some hidden registers for different countries. As an example,
- we had a Japanese client who had the same problem.
-
- A call to ZyXEL tech support quickly provided the solution, and they are
- now pleased as punch!
