Free 3CX - Can this not have Hard phones?

[Terri Griffiths]

I have just let me 3CX SMB go to Free version. And all my handsets have stopped working. Does free version not allow desk phones? I have a Fanvil which is the router SBC handset which won't fire up which means my Yealink & SNOM won't start either.

Thats correct, just all the apps.

Thats a shame.

I thought you could have up to 10 phones on the 3CX SMB Free 10 version? I have a small client that has only two phones, one a Yealink router phone and one Linkvil cordless. This works fine?

If you had a standard license pre cut off then you could have had a free pbx with your own handsets

Edit; actually, it does say 3 handsets..

Max 3 Deskphones

Yes thats what I thought, but its incorrect to state to the OP that you cant have deskphones, because you can, or am I misinterpreting?

 

[bitn2]

Ah sorry, yes you can have 3 phones. But no Routerphone SBC. You need to use an other option for that.

My clients on the Free SMB 10 with a router phone though? See attached image. When I added the Linkvil cordless it registered via the router phone.

I am not sure why it works for you but it stated no router phone:
