« on: October 02, 2009, 09:48:22 am »
Hi@all,

I`ve got a littel problem:
I have two IP-Phones, a Core/hybrid and a MD (there are headsets on the computers). I can call the clients and phones
but I Just can talk from computer to computer and from phone to phone.
Can someboby help me, please?

Hmmm... sounds like you need to add an external VOIP provider so that you get external phone service.

I have no provider, but I only want to use the "Intercom" of MCE.

Not that I know anything about the systems intercome, it seems you forgot a "can't" somewhere in your first post?

To use the Intercom feature, you must use the built in Media Director SimplePhone. Attach a Phoenix Solo USB mic to the media director. Done.

No, don't argue, just do it.

Thanks for your help.

Could that be that my headset is the problem? I use a LOGITECH PC HEADSET 860 and it has just a microphone and speaker plug, no USB.

you may need to fiddle with the OS settings to get the "plugs" to work properly.

Just follow Thom's advice.

Can you clarify? Are you saying Computer -> Computer and Phone -> Phone work, but Computer -> Phone and Phone -> Computer doesn't?

Please explain exactly what works and what doesn't ;)
