Client does not recognise phone associated with extension

[acolville]

Since the upgrade to V15 my Yealink T28P phones are not appearing in the 3CX client. The client only acts as a softphone...

I updated to the latest firmware via the 3CX server (this version is newer than the one on the Yealink site?) but this makes no difference.

Any ideas anyone?

Hi,

Can you please confirm the following:
1. Does this phone provisioned?
2. Do you have latest 3CX PBX and client installed?
3. When you click on phone icon (under the Status drop-down list) do you see Deskphone(CTI)? If yes, can you select it and check again?

I have pretty much the same problem with our Yealink T32 / T38.
We are using them in CTI mode.
Each time we reboot the computers, the 3cxphone is reseting to softphone.
This didn't happened with the previous version (v15 SP1 didn't change this behaviour)

This happens because 3CX Client is re-provisioning on startup and startup options are being reset.
To fix this go to the Phone Provisioning tab of each extension, select 3CX Client from "Your phones" drop-down list and change "Call Control:" from 'Softphone' to 'IP Phone'.
Like this when the client reprovisions, it will reprovision with the settings from the Management console.

That is good to know Andreas. I was wondering where the settings went for 3CX phone.

The new interface is awesomely fast and it makes doing management a joy for the most part, but operations like this simply take too long when there are a lot of extensions. We need the ability to be able to do bulk settings.

Is there a possibility to change the default behaviour of the 3CX phone to CTI mode?
