Ta b l e  10-3 Cisco Unified Wireless IP Phone Troubleshooting Tips 
Summary Explanation
Phone is resetting The phone resets when it loses contact with the 
Cisco
 Unified Communications Manager software. This lost connection can 
be due to any network connectivity disruption, including access point 
problems, switch outages, and switch reboots.
See the “Symptom: Cisco Unified Wireless IP Phone Resets Unexpectedly” 
section on page 10-8.
Time on phone is incorrect Sometimes the time or date on the phone is incorrect. The Cisco Unified 
Wireless IP
 Phone 7925G gets its time and date when it registers with 
Cisco
 Unified Communications Manager. Power cycle the phone to reset the 
time or date.
The time shows in either 12 hour or 24 hour format.
Ring volume is too low To see if the ring volume is set correctly on the phone, choose Settings 
>Phone Settings > Sound Settings > Volumes. Scroll up for the highest 
volume
You can also press the volume button on the side of the phone and the volume 
setting appears on the phone screen.
Phone does not ring To see if the phone is set to ring, choose Settings > Phone Settings > Sound 
Settings > Alert Pattern, and check that it a ring setting is selected.
To see if a ring tone has been set for the phone, choose Settings > Phone 
Settings > Ring Tone. If none is set, add a ring tone for the phone.
To see if the speaker is functioning properly, adjust the ring volume settings 
to the highest level. Enable keypad tones or call the phone to check the 
speaker. 
One-way audio on phone Check that the speaker is functioning properly. Adjust the speaker volume 
setting and call the phone to check the speaker.
Check that ARP caching has been set on the AP. See “VoIP WLAN 
Configuration” section on page 2-21.
Delays when roaming from one location to 
another
If Cisco Catalyst 45xx series switches are being used as the main Layer 3 
switches in the network, ensure that the supervisor blades are a minimum 
SUP2+ or later version. The Cisco
 Unified Wireless IP Phone 7925G (or any 
wireless client) experiences roaming delays when an earlier version (SUP 1 
or SUP2) blade is used.
Phone firmware downgrades  After applying a Cisco Unified Communications Manager upgrade or patch, 
that is older than the current Cisco
 Unified Wireless IP Phone 7925G 
firmware, the phones could automatically downgrade to the load contained in 
the patch. Check the Cisco
 Unified Communications Manager7925G device 
default image in the TFTP folder to fix this problem.
