Ok, since you don’t have the GPP_K value of the adapter which has been upgraded to firmware 3.1.9, before going any further, make sure you can FACTORY RESET THE ADAPTER (while it’s disconnected from the internet).
STEP 1: Factory Reset the adapter:
1) Disconnect the adapter from the internet
2) Connect a simple telephone to LINE1
3) Enter IVR mode by dialing: ****
4) Enter the command: 73738# (i.e. R E S E T #)
5) If/when prompted for password, enter one of the 5 “known/common” Vonage USER Passwords:
- 78196365
- 50274537
- 7756112
- 8995523
- 5465866
6) Press the # key after entering a password
7) Repeat the process above until one of the passwords works or you’ve exhausted the list
If prompted to “Press 1 to confirm,” do so.
If the adapter successfully factory resets, you may proceed with the next series of steps.
If not, you’re pretty much “stuck” at this point and need to find a working Vonage USER Password.
STEP 2: Attempt to access the PAP2’s WEB INTERFACE & remove Vonage’s DNS settings:
1) Disconnect the internet connection from your BROADBAND ROUTER or BROADBAND MODEM
2) Connect the PAP2 to your ROUTER
3) Connect a PC to the ROUTER
4) In a web-browser, navigate to the PAP2’s IP address (if you don’t know it, go back into IVR mode and issue command 110#)
5) Go to the “SYSTEM” tab and clear out the “Primary DNS” and “Secondary DNS” entires.Note: If you can’t access the adapter’s web interface, so long as the adapter remains disconnected from the internet, the inability to perform this series of steps is not a big deal. The adapter will simply take longer resolving DNS requests (by trying Vonage’s IP addresses first, and after failing to reach them, trying DHCP assigned DNS entries next).
STEP 3: Gather/setup the following items:
1) Sipura SPA-2000 Firmware 2.0.9 converted to PAP2 mode firmware and renamed to file: PAP2-bin-03-01-09-LSc.bin (An already converted version of the firmware is availabe in Post #3, Step 3. Use file PAP2-SP2K.bin. If the aforementioned link is down, an alternate location for the files is listed in Post #504).
2) An HTTP Server running on your LOCAL LAN
3) A TFTP Server running on your LOCAL LAN @ Port 69 (for simplicity make this the same PC as the HTTP server)
4) A DNS Server running on your LOCAL LAN (for simplicity make this the same PC as the HTTP & TFTP servers)
5) A DHCP Server running on your LOCAL LAN:
- If you have a BROADBAND ROUTER, this may be used provided you:
i) Disconnect the INTERNET CONNECTION to the router (i.e. unplug the cable going to the router’s WAN port and/or disable any WDS settings)
ii) Manually configure the PAP2’s DNS server to use the IP ADDRESS of your local DNS server (i.e. STEP #4 above). This will need to be done through the PAP2’s IVR:
a) Enter IVR mode by dialing: ****
b) Enter command 160# to review the current DNS server IP address (if you so desire)
c) Enter command 161# to set/change the DNS server IP address
d) Type in the IP address of your LOCAL DNS SERVER, separating octects with an asterisk (*). End input with the # key. Example: if your DNS SERVER’s IP address is 192.168.0.50, enter: 192*168*0*50#
e) Press 1 to SAVE, Press 2 to REVIEW, Press 3 to RE-ENTER, Press * to exit
f) Upon successfully reviewing the DNS Server IP Address setting, SAVE THE SETTING!
iii) Remember to clear the PAP2’s DNS Server settings after it’s been unlocked! (This can be done through the adapter’s web interface).
- Internet Connection Sharing (ICS) built into XP may work. Try enabling it on the ETHERNET adapter of your PC (i.e. the same PC running the HTTP, TFTP, and DNS servers)
- 3rd Party DHCP software should work too (for simplicity, make this the same PC as the HTTP, TFTP, and DNS servers)
6) A copy of your adapter’s ENCRYPTED Config File (from Vonage’s TFTP server) named spa000000000000.xml (where 000000000000 is the MAC ADDRESS of your PAP2)
Download a copy of your adapter’s ENCRYPTED Config File (from Vonage’s
TFTP server) named spa000000000000.xml (where 000000000000 is the MAC
ADDRESS of your PAP2). Try these commands.
tftp -i ls.tftp.vonage.net GET spa000000000000.xml
or
tftp -i ls.tftp.vonage.net GET //spa000000000000.xml
or
tftp -i ls.tftp.vonage.net GET /spa000000000000.xml
7) A CROSSOVER Ethernet cable
STEP 4: Configure your LOCAL LAN’s DNS Server to mimic Vonage’s Servers:
1) Point httpconfig.vonage.net to the LAN IP address running your HTTP server
2) Point ls.tftp.vonage.net to the LAN IP address running your TFTP server
3) (Optional but recommended) Point *.vonage.net to the LAN IP address running your HTTP/TFTP servers
4) (Optional but recommended) Forward UDP ports 21 & 2400 to Port 69 (so that your TFTP server receives traffic on ports 21, 2400, and the default TFTP port of 69). If you don’t know how to configure this, setup a 2nd TFTP server listening on PORT 2400. (Vonage seems to use ports 69 & 2400 the most, but they also use 21).
STEP 5: Prepare your local file structure:
1) In your TFTP ROOT directory (or directories if running mulitple TFTP servers), copy your adapter’s ENCRYPTED config file to that directory as spa000000000000.xml (where 000000000000 is the MAC ADDRESS of your PAP2)
2) In your HTTP ROOT directory, create sub-directory: +000000000000 (where 000000000000 is the MAC ADDRESS of your PAP2)
3) Copy the modified SPA-2000 v2.0.9 firmware to the HTTP-ROOT/+000000000000/ directory (where 000000000000 is the MAC ADDRESS of your PAP2) as filename PAP2-bin-03-01-09-LSc.bin
STEP 6: Start the UNLOCK PROCESS (i.e. load SPA2000 2.0.9 firmware into your PAP2):
1) Disconnect the ethernet cable from the PC running the HTTP/TFTP/DNS servers
2) Disconnect the POWER cable from the PAP2
3) Connect the PAP2 and the PC to each other:
If using a BROADBAND ROUTER as your DHCP server:
- Using a standard ethernet cable, connect the PAP2 to a LAN PORT on your Broadband Router
- Using a standard ethernet cable, connect the PC (running the DNS, TFTP, and HTTP servers) to a LAN PORT on your Broadband Router
- Make sure NOTHING is connected to the WAN PORT of the Broadband Router!
- Make sure any WDS (Wireless Distribution System) settings have been disabled on the Broadband Router! If you don’t know what a WDS is and/or haven’t set one up, chances are there is nothing to disable.
4) Make sure the PC is powered up and that the DNS, TFTP and HTTP servers are running
5) Power on the PAP2
6) If all goes well, your TFTP server’s log will show the PAP2 grabbing the encrypted file.
7) Shortly thereafter, the HTTP server’s log should show the PAP2 grabbing the modified SPA2000 v2.0.9 firmware file.
Once the PAP2 has loaded the SPA-2000 firmware, one of the indicator lights on the PAP2 should turn RED
STEP 7: (Re-)Open WEB access and configure known USER & ADMIN pws:
1) Create a TEXT FILE called spa000000000000.xml (where 000000000000 is the MAC ADDRESS of your PAP2) as follows:
CODE
<flat-profile>
<Admin_Passwd ua=”na”>4321</Admin_Passwd>
<Enable_Web_Server ua=”na”>Yes</Enable_Web_Server>
<Web_Server_Port ua=”na”>80</Web_Server_Port>
<Enable_Web_Admin_Access ua=”na”>Yes</Enable_Web_Admin_Access>
<Protect_IVR_FactoryReset ua=”na”>No</Protect_IVR_FactoryReset>
<User_Password ua=”na”>1234</User_Password>
</flat-profile>
2) Copy the new spa000000000000.xml (where 000000000000 is the MAC ADDRESS of your PAP2) file to your TFTP ROOT directory (or directories if running multiple TFTP servers)
3) Power cycle the PAP2
4) Check your TFTP Server’s log to see when the file has been grabbed
If the TFTP Server’s log shows a FILE NOT FOUND error message, and if the file attempting to be grabbed was requested from an obscurely named sub-directory (i.e. /a12BcdeFgH/spa000000000000.xml), create that sub-directory (a12BcdeFgH) underneath the TFTP Root and move (or copy) the spa000000000000.xml file to that sub-directory. Then re-Power Cycle the PAP2 and re-check the TFTP Server’s log.
5) After it’s been grabbed & loaded, the adapter’s USER password is “1234” and the ADMIN password is “4321“
Note: Sipura SPA-2000 2.0.9 firmware allows PLAIN TEXT config files to be loaded and processed. That is why this unlock “trick” works.
STEP 8: Revert back to PAP2 firmware:
STEP 9: Obtain the FACTORY FRESH GPP_K key (OPTIONAL but recommended)

Thanks for the reply. Yes, device has taken to the .bin file. I can use **** and check the vesion. It says Supra 2.xxx. But I cannot get to the web interface. I tried to user 161# to modify DNS server ip but it asked for password. None of the passwords worked even 4321. So I made my dns server 216.x.x.x and it took plain text xml file from u1Q2i8biMs folder. One led light it is still RED and no web interface access.Am I missing anyting?Thanks for you help

But it should not be necessary to do that, because plain text file will enable the web interface.
By the way, to create the text file, just copy from the site and paste, that will make it for sure.Comment by alen — January 30, 2007 @ 5:26 pm

Again, after it took the plain text file, did you factory reset it? If not, and you are sure there’s no physical problem with the cable, and can’t go to web interface, the only possibility should be the plain text file which happened to me once before. If you want, I’ll send the plain text file I used later today.Comment by alen — January 31, 2007 @ 6:19 pm

Connect my PC to a switch, PAP2 to the same switch, no internet.Start Simple DNS on my machine, verify that ls.vonage.net & httpconfig.vonage.net resolves to my IP (10.10.1.101) with NSLOOKUPStart IIS, verify that http://httpconfig.vonage.net/+pEO6DOxPTY/PAP-BIN-03-01-09-LSc.bin (looked in the W3SVC logfile to see that the file was grabbed from it via IE, the file did download to my PC)Start 3 instances of TFTPDWIN one running on each port 21, 69, 2400 respectively.Run Ethereal to watch what’s going on.Unplug PAP2 from LAN, power cycle PAP2, use IVR to factory reset the PAP2.Use IVR to set DHCP=0, Static IP 10.10.1.199, Subnet 255.255.255.0, Gateway 10.10.1.1, DNS 10.10.1.101Cycle power to PAP2 with LAN connected.PAP2 broadcasts it’s IP via ARP. Queries my DNS for ls.tftp.vonage.net and proceeds to download XML file from my TFTP server. The TFTP server shows the file was downloaded.Unit then sits there. It doesn’t try to download the modified firmware.This PAP2 has been provisioned for about 3 years. Recently I cancelled service wanting to use this box with something else (still looking to experiment). Maybe that’s where I’m having my problem?Linksys has released new firmware for PAP2. It is 3.1.22-LS and there are warnings about upgrading your device might cause interruption of service. If I’m screwed because of provisioning, I’d like to at least put the Linksys firmware in so that the customized Vonage firmware is out.Got any ideas?

Start IIS, verify that http://httpconfig.vonage.net/+pEO6DOxPTY/PAP-BIN-03-01-09-LSc.bin (looked in the W3SVC logfile to see that the file was grabbed from it via IE, the file did download to my PC)
[/quote]
Is this the modified firmware? So it already grabbed it? How come the folder is +pEO6DOxPTY? It should be +MAC which should 12digits and each one is 0-F.After that, you factory reset it?Comment by alen — February 19, 2007 @ 3:15 am

2) Point ls.tftp.vonage.net to the LAN IP address running your TFTP serverCan anyone break these two steps down in simpler terms? I understand the idea is to use your offline PC to emulate the online server, but how and exactly where are these two above parameters set up exactly? I have Solar Winds tftp, Simple DNS Plus and Apache 2.02 installed. Appreciate anyone who can help with these two settings.Comment by Jonathan — October 31, 2007 @ 7:11 am
Let’s say you are running everything on your local computer. It has ip 192.168.0.3.
Then you need set up these two URLs pointing to your ip.It should be in Record. Click new, create new zone first with any name. Then you create URLs.

Thank you very much for the attention. When he reads the xml I observe for the log of the tftp, but it doesn’t carry the firmware because the version continues 3.1.9 in the web. You can help finding out the steps to do him to record the firmware.
