Firmware upgrade error VVX311

[Anonymous]

So I got a few VVX311 phones I want to use with 3CX, but in order to get them to work they need to be updated to 6.1.2

I have tried through the GUI - its not working I get i cant download a .CFG file eror and it will keep looping until I reset it to factory defaults again. 

Then I found a guide where I go through the phone and change under server settings and provisioning server, and it seems the phone is downloading but it keeps looping again !!

I have configured more than 1,000 of another brand with firmware updates as well, why is Polycom phones so complicated.

Not even their own firmware server can update the phones. I hope there is an easy answer or Polycom will not be a part of our offerings moving forward. To much an hassle....

Sorry but we have spent way to much time and money on something very simple that other vendors handle with EASE .....

Current phone is:
