::I tried the above link in order to download the SIP v8.2 firmware and
I was unable to get past the name and password box. Is this still
working? If not, or if someone has info on v8.8, please reply or email
me with ZIP. Thanks in advance, Earl::

The username is 'anonymous' and the password is your email address.

Thanks for the reply, but using the above does not work for me; have
tried it from several different public IP addresses and every time I am

In the meantime, I have resolved the problem thanks to the kind help of
