Why would anyone buy the SPA2102 (discontinued, to boot, by mfgr) with SPA3102 available??

I did not know the SPA3102 is limited to one FXS port due to the other phone jack being used by the FXO port to the phone company. I thought there were three phone jacks or at least one supported two FXS ports. The SPA2102 has two FXS ports instead so you can support two analog telephone lines to your home equipment using one VOIP provider.

If SPA2102 is less expensive and if one does not need the FXO port to connect to the telephone company for failover or gateway usage, the SPA2102 may work. The additional circuitry and the added RJ11 jack to support the FXO port and the gateway connection is an additional costs. There is the potential that extra circuitry that is unneeded and unused can fail. Assuming that all things are otherwise equal, price would be the way to pick if you don't need the FXO.

Dear John, I buy SPA 2102 because i need 2 port of analogue telephone. Actually i need 4 port of analogue phone port. But because it's too expensive for me to buy 1 IAD with 8 port, instead i buy two unit of SPA2102. Hence I don't need the FXO port on my design. I only need one SPA3102 to connect to my only one phone line.

I was wondering the same thing. Why get it somewhere else when you could get it directly from the manufacturer. It's a bunch of bull if you ask me.

Hey there! I'm in the same predicament also? I just purchased the 32m3000 series for the "cheap" price of $649 when it was available at other non competitor retailers for $550-575. (I wanted the 4 year protection plan the cheaper guys didn't offer). It's a gift for father so it's not opened yet. The only thing the store assistant said was that one model's from 2007 and the other is 2008. He didn't want to lie to me about tech knowledge he didn't know about.

don't know. All I see is "model 12248", and presumably serial "0021903". Do you know how to find the model suffix?

I bought from them in May 2008. I don't know if they still carry it. However, I am game about trying a cheaper alternative, as long as the specs match. I have another one package that I didn't even open since I didn't have the need to use it, yet. I will probably use all 3 on my next trip.

Yes. Read the specs. You'd also find out that the product has been discontinued. Gee, there's a shock.

Well I did try to purchase one from the seller gr8deals327 only to get dirty used and part missing stuff so didn't buy it. I suggest going to Frigidaire web site and goto the contact us and ask them as it is their product. :) Hope this helps.

it doesn't normally cost anywhere close. It's $149.99 direct from buttkicker or $129 at other outlets. Those prices are for the version 2 which fixed an issue with the power amp overheating on the version 1 (this one makes no reference to version so one must assume he is selling the first version). Some goofballs price items this way so they can make people feel that they are getting a deal by posting the amazon link and then asking $300 or some funky number.

According to the specs, they both seems to be the same product. Probably the marketing strategy? lol

I wish they will sell this Linux model without the 32SDHC at cheaper price. A SDHC can be installed later when it becomes necessary. I don't mind that I will have to adjust BIOS or some sort to do so.

Now, here is a kicker. On BH site it shows as DISCONTINUED! So what's the replacement if it's the case? I was hesitant to pull a trigger a couple of weeks ago when price was around $435 and obviously have missed the opportunity. However, if this is already an old model, I am very interested in a replacement.

mine came with sp2 but uploaded sp3 without a hitch off wireless over ~ 10 minutes in back ground... I even (foolishly) stopped midstream and upgraded to 2 gig's ram and after restarting boot booster all continued w/o a hitch. Then wrapped it back up and put it back under the tree.

The initial production model had 2.0 ports. It was then updated to have 3.0 ports though remained with the same model name. Possible to get either one.

Are you able to get v2 by a software upgrade or is just a case of "let the buyer beware"?

You should check it with Pivos stuff, however, I believe they are M3 now. It seems like M1 was shipped in first wave or two, but new devices from the supplier are M3 (mine is M3, bought few weeks ago).

Please post a link if you know this specific model is on sale somewhere! :) I've seen the lesser versions (1810TZ and 1410) on sale and people confuse them with the 1810T, but this is the specific one I'm hoping to buy ASAP!

I think you might need the next model up (with a W2 terminal) for your system: TH6220D: For up to 2 Heat/2 Cool systems
