Submitting a New Case
Reynwood has a multitude of channels to submit a case to our team
Option 1: Email
You can open a new support request by simply sending an email to “team @ reynwood.com” (Please remove the spaces before and after the @ symbol)
Option 2: Web Widget
Simply click the little “Help” button at the bottom left (not the right one ;-) of this page, or any other support page; fill out the details of your request and then hit “Send.” This will open up a new case and will be routed to Team Reynwood to address.
Option 3: Give Us a Call
You can always get help by dialing 611 from your Reynwood device or call us at 732.924.4060, if calling from your mobile device or non-Reynwood service.
We are fully staffed during the business day. If you happen to get voicemail, simply leave a message and the system will transcribe your message and will route it to a Team member to be addressed.
We have made these improvements in order to serve you, our loyal Clients, even better!
Simple Diagnostic Steps
Your Reynwood technician may direct you to carry out some simple diagnostic steps to help identify the cause of a problem that we’re working on. Please follow the instructions below and any guidance your technician has given you to help us speed you to a resolution.
Some of the requests may seem a little technical but we’ll interpret the results for you. Also, note that we’ve included the button number against each choice for the Polycom VVX series phones – that may vary for the older Polycom SoundPoint phones – chose the button that most closely resembles the instruction.
Step 1: Validate Connectivity
To validate general connectivity, we can initiate something called a “ping request” – this asks the phone to reach out and report if it can contact the Internet.
To initiate a ping request, press Menu & select Settings then press:
- 4. Status
- 4. Diagnostics
- 4. Networking
- 1. Ping
- Enter 8.8.8.8 (that’s 8*8*8*8)
- Press the Start soft key on the display.
After a short delay, the phone should display a few attempts to reach the destination. If each shows “Success” and not “0 received”, we’re in good shape, proceed to Validate DNS
Step 2: Validate DNS
Here we’ll check that your phone can read the names from the Internet used to find the systems out there. To validate DNS lookup, we can test using a “trace route”.
To initiate a trace route, press Menu & select Settings then press:
- 4. Status
- 4. Diagnostics
- 4. Networking
- 2. Trace Route
- Enter 8.8.8.8 (that’s 8*8*8*8)
- Press the Start soft key on the display
After approximately 60 seconds, the display should return. The result of the trace route MUST contain names such as alter.net or verizon for example, as well as numbers. If you see names in the trace, you can proceed to checking configuration download, if not, let us know.
Step 3: Configuration download
To validate that the phone is able to reach our systems and collect its configuration settings, press Menu & select Settings then:
- 4. Status
- 3. Lines
If able to reach out, you should see that the Line is shown as “Registered“.
Step 4: Collect information
In this step we’ll gather some information about your network to help us figure things out.
Press Menu & select Settings followed by:
- 4. Status
- 2. Network
- 1. TCP/IP Parameters.
Jot down the “IP Address“, “Subnet Mask“, “Gateway” and “DNS Server” – we can use that info to localize the issue.
Please let us know what you find and, thanks!
