Archive for SPA941

In response to the comments posted my original post I have put together a new version of the Linksys SPA Personal Directory Manager.

This version has had some cosmetic tweaks, includes a proper installer and has the ability to upload the directory to many phones.

There is a small charge of £1.95 for this software.

This has been tested and works with:

Linksys SPA941Linksys SPA942Linksys SPA962

Update: 13/08/2011:
Support has now been added for the Cisco SPA504G.  It may well work with other new phones from this series but I do not have the phones on hand to test.
Be very interested in any feedback or feature requests. Click on the Paypal link to purchase:

Updated Version now available: http://www.tachytelic.net/2011/01/updated-linksys-spa-personal-directory-manager/

We’ve been using the Linksys SPA942 handsets for a while and they have worked very well for us. One of the major annoyances for us and others is the inability to populate the personal directory automatically.

I’ve read a number of posts on how to use wget to issue to personal directory to the phone via a HTTP post and this seemed like a good solution. In particular this post and this post inspired me to see if I could create a solution using the same technique in VB.Net.

So I have put together a simple program which will allow you to load/save a personal directory to/from a tab delimited file or handset. There are loads of enhancements that could be made in order to make the application more sophisticated but this is really a first attempt, so please report any problems.  You will need .net framework 3.0 to run the tool.  I’ll put the project into a proper setup file if it is sufficiently popular.

Here is a screenshot of the utility:

Download the program from the newer post :

I’m using firmware version 6.1.5a, I’d be interested to hear if this does/does not work on other versions or if anyone has any suggestions for enhancements.

This is also a great way to backup/restore your Linksys SPA handset – I factory reset my handset and this much easier than re-entering all the personal directory.
