Your descriptions don't make sense to me, and the picture needs more detail to be helpful. Some make and model #s would also help.
You probably are having conflicting DHCP servers. Are you sure that you've turned the "ISP Router" DHCP server function off? I would try disconnecting the "Server", enabling DHCP on the "ISP Router" so that it allocates addresses, and pulling out "Router". See if your phone work when they are plugged into "ISP Router" -- then introduce the equipment step by step.
Your phone problems could happen if "Server" allocated an IP to the phone, then after a few minutes (half the set timeout interval), the telephone tried to renew its address and a mis-configured "ISP Router" responded with a different address instead. Or perhaps "Router" was running DHCP as well. This would derail the phones IP conversation.
I'm also not sure how "Router" could help your network. By Router, do you mean some kind of boundary/NAT/firewall device? Perhaps that is also getting derailed by DHCP confusion and falling back to a factory pre-set.
Also, does this have anything to do with wireless or security? |
