RingEX

Does anyone have a step by step guide to configuration of a VLAN using unifi network hardware and ring central phones?  Using poly e350 phones, I changed the VLAN id to 10 on the phone, I believe I changed to VLAN id for the switch port to 10 in the unifi controller.  The trunk port to the unifi switch is set to allow all VLANs, and the unified controller has a DHCP server (enabled) for the given VLAN, i.e. 10, so I am at a loss why the poly e350 cannot get an IP address via DHCP, when set at the phone and the switch port to VLAN 10.  Surely someone that has unifi (ubiquiti) network equipment has figured this out?  Any help greatly appreciated.

I move from Ooma to RingCentral becuse I was told it was better, but one thing I can’t find is Notification when you have a voicemail or a missed call, it did always show with the Ooma app.

I have a question around the call status of an inbound call. We are testing routing calls from Twilio to RingCentral. In Twilio we have a list of direct RingCentral numbers, we would like to dial them sequentially. The issue is, RingCentral immediately answers the call and then internally rings the agent. In Twilio, that call was “answered“ even though no agent actually accepted the call, so it never moves on to dial the next number.We have tested this with standard phone numbers and the logic works fine, it is only calls to RingCentral numbers that have this issue. Is there a way to have RingCentral not accept the call until an agent actually answers?Just to reiterate, the call is marked as “In-progress” within RingCentral if the agent never answered, but it is technically answered from a call perspective as soon as the call hits RC. We would like RC to not answer the call until an agent actually answers/accepts.

This has been asked about in a few questions, but no useful answer has been posted.When connected to my car via Bluetooth, my phone automatically answers calls. How do I stop this happening?The one instance of this being asked blamed the phone/headset, but as it is happening on various phones and Bluetooth devices it would seem to be a feature of the app.

Is seems in the last month or so. The caller ID information for incoming and outgoing calls is using old information. From what we can tell, is its about 10 year old information. Almost like the database that RingCentral stores caller id names in reverted to 10 years ago.anyone else seeing this?

Is there a way to add additional names, nicknames to a user for to be used for the dial by name directory? For example the name Joseph or Joe has different first three letters but very common for people to call someone by both names. The issue is for name directory you can only find someone under one name not by both.

Hi everyone,Our company has several RingCentral accounts used by different staff members. Right now, all of our text messages go to one main account.To read or reply to messages, we have to log out of our current account, switch to the main one, handle the texts, and then switch back — which is really inconvenient.Is there a way to let all users view and respond to texts from the main account without having to constantly switch accounts?Thanks in advance for any help or suggestions!

This was a post 2 years ago. I followed advise to block the number on the Super Admin extension, but the call keeps coming though to the Message-Only extension. How can I resolved ? This is the post from 2 years ago:https://community.ringcentral.com/ringex-phone-sms-fax-6/how-can-we-block-a-number-on-a-message-only-extension-1115 Like I said, I did just that, but the caller manages to get through at the same number asking the same questions. I also tried going to Message-Only extensions and clicking on the msg. 45/45 for the company name but in there, I don't see an options for blocking the number in there. Only the option via 3 dots, to Download or Forward. Anyone able to assist ?

For the past several months, we've had our users adopt the new RC app to replace RC Classic. However, the RC Classic app somehow keeps reinstalling itself within hours or by the next day (after a reboot), and then becomes the default app that opens at startup instead of the new RC app.How can we fully uninstall the RC Classic app from Windows 10 systems? This is taking up way too much of our bandwidth. I have started just leaving RC Classic installed on our systems (been through this loop four times myself), though that is really not the solution we expect.I do have an open case on this, but it's been on PKI Hold since January.

I was on https://support.rincentral.com/download.html site looking for the RingCentral Phone download but am only able to find RingCentral App for End-Users.  Where was the RingCentral Phone download moved to?In our situation the full RingCentral app does not work for our receptionists.

We currently have two RingCentral instances — one in the U.S. and another in India — each with a different unique ID (UID). Is it possible to enable extension-to-extension calling between these two instances?

I have sent faxes by opening a PDF, selecting Print and choosing RingCentral from the printers list. After the fax is sent, I click the "eye" icon in RC for Windows to see what the fax looks like, and the image quality is terrible. Is this what my customers are seeing when I send them a fax?

In the last week I had a couple of voicemail messages that did not make sense.  They appeared in some way malicious but I can’t figure out the angle. One sounded completely silent but had a somewhat natural but nonsensical text and another one was completely garbled and incomprehensible to me but again the automated transcription came pretty clear.  It feels like hidden nonsense messages within audio but I can’t figure out what could be the use.  

Hello,We’re using RingCentral entirely on App (computers Mac/Windows and Mobile App iOS/Android), with no physical desk phones.I’d like to allow multiple users to share two outbound phone lines, so we don’t have to pay for a separate direct line for every user.Is there a way to configure this in RingCentral ?Here’s our setup and what we’re trying to achieve: No desk phones, only the RingCentral app; Limit the number of simultaneous outbound calls (e.g. 2 max); Allow all users to share the same main company number for outbound caller ID.  We are a team of 10 people, including two members in customer relations. My ideal would be to have two outbound call lines.One reserved for my group: Customer Relations (2 members) The second is available to everyone: 10 members (including my two customer

We are having a couple issues with automatic call recording.When our people call out and they call a number that has a virtual assistant, our call recording message plays over the virtual assistant options. Should this be happening? We have customers that hang up as soon as the call recording message starts playing when we call because they think they are talking to a robot or spam. Has anyone found anything that helps with this? We tried putting our company name in the first part of it so they would know it was us, but that isn’t working as well as we hoped, and now the message is super long.

We use Ring Central Polycom VVX 450s across our organization. I have 2 phones that are occasionally de-registering themselves and stating “No Service” then moments later will come back up. I don’t think it has anything to do with PoE as the phones will stay on during this time. The firewall is allowing for connections out to the IP/Port. Would having inbound connections limited affect this? The phones are on two different switches. Again this is only happening to 2 phones that I’m aware of, out of the 90+ in our environment. Any help would be appreciated.

Hello,My Yealink T33G phones keep resetting nightly. I’ve emailed Yealink at the direction of RingCentral Technical Support and this is what they directed but I cannot figure out within the phone IP log in how to update these settings. Any help is appreciated!  

I am feeling my laptop become slower with RC, is this usage of memory usual? It spikes on bootup WIN10Device name Lenovo X1 CarbonProcessor Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-10510U CPU @ 1.80GHz 2.30 GHzInstalled RAM 16.0 GB (15.8 GB usable)500GB SSDSystem type 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor

Hello everyone, I noticed that since yesterday, incoming calls are received either in the smartphone application or in the desktop application. Moreover, if the call comes from a queue (where several operators receive calls), it always comes to the desktop, and if you close it, the call will come to the app on your smartphone. I think calls used to come simultaneously before.

I can’t get my existing T46U phone to configure with RingCentral. Even after a factory reset

We recently migrated to RingEx from the cloud phone platform formerly known as Shoretel Sky and we have made the unwelcome discovery that the firmware that RingCentral upgrades us to shows us random pictures of architecture. For us, this is a big problem because we are architects and the work isn’t ours. It’s a bit like if you went into Nintendo’s offices and the phones were cycling between pictures of Crash Bandicoot, Sonic and Master Chief.I’ve looked in the firmware and tried to find discussions online for how to change what is displayed in the screensaver and I haven’t yet turned up anything useful. I also emailed our rep, but he’s just emailed other people. There has to be a way, so any help finding that way would be appreciated.

I am a Virtual Assistant and have clients that forward me their phones to answer. I was told before I signed up with RC that I would be able to have the caller ID show the actual clients name, NOT the name and number of the person calling my clients. I’ve been searching for a way and finally had a chat with Ryan. He informed me they cant do that in the system. This is literally the only reason I went with RC. Now I have to answer the phone calls with just my name, not the actual company because i have no clue what business line it is. HOW does this even happen?!? Sales guy just saying yes to get the sale? I’m so beyond mad right now… 

I’m trying to set up Ringcentral for our company. I’ve enabled the app in Teams admin and it pushed out just fine to our desktops running Teams. I’ve even made calls through the app. But for some reason it isn’t coming up in the Teams mobile on my iPhone. Has anyone ran into this?

Hi there, I’m trying to find an average number of fax pages that are sent in the past 30 days from my company. I can see how many faxes are sent or received, but I need to know if Ringcentral can tell me how many total number of pages were sent in those faxes. Is there a way to audit this from the admin portal?

Has anyone had any success registering their numbers on the Free Caller Registry to fix caller ID discrepancies? Some carriers still won’t show our caller ID or will show someone else’s name (who is not related to us at all) for the caller ID so we need to get the Caller ID fixed but I am a little concerned that the Free Caller Registry is going to open us up to getting a lot of spam calls. Or does anyone have any other suggestions to fix Caller ID?
