I have the same problem. I got my phone in December and it worked fine. I just came back from a 2-week vacation and now it says it needs to register. I've tried following the instructions for registering several times, but it keeps failing.

I am having the exact same problem. Worked fine on Friday, now it keeps saying Registration Failed. Any help?

Product worked well one day then LCD showed no Signal. It seems to not be able to communicate with the wireless base station. I tried registering unit to base station and it failed. It is less than one year old. Thoughts?

I solved this issue with our Polycom by following the following instructions via the link below.

Upgrade phones with following software:
CVM: Version 1.61
All SoundStation2Ws with software CVM version 1.61 are susceptible to this failure mechanism and must be updated. To upgrade the software, please download theSoundStation2W Software Upgrade application and follow the detailed Software Upgrade Instructions located on the SoundStation2W support page. This issue only impacts the CVM version number listed above.

Requirements:

1. USB cable for the Polycom wireless unit
2. Windows XP machine
3. Download the instructions
4. Download the Firmware Update

This is correct, with the exception that the version known to have the issue is DSP 1.4 and up. You can check your version via Menu, This Phone, System Information.

Also, be sure to download the most current upgrade utility, which is update on the SoundStation 2W Product Support Page.http://bit.ly/ss2wsupport

Your both screwed. you need to get it repaired, about $200-300, or get a new phone. The wireless chip is fried. This is a common error and we believe to be a deliberate attempt to manufacture a shorter than normal life span.

Hello, I had the same issue on a couple of Polycom soundstations (we have a few) and then it happened on a third one and I thought no way I am buying another one. I opened a ticket with Polycom and pretty aggressively told them I wasn't taking their useless one year warranty as a reason why they wouldn't fix my wireless soundstations. I said there is a known fault with these and I'll take it to their MD if I had to as we buy a lot of polycom kit so keep me happy bla bla... Within a week I had 2 new soundstations FOC. Nice. Customer services were very efficient so I can't fault them once I had spoken (logged call on their site) to them about it. Good luck in getting yours replaced!

Basically if your software version is NOT CVM 1.61 and you are having this problem, then you will need to contact Polycom to arrange a replacement. This problem is not yet fixable with a software patch except for units with CVM 1.61.

Polycom soundstationex

this unit requires POTS (plain old telephone service) .. thats the normal phone jack that you would find in your home ..the base station is connected to that via a standard phone cord .. if you have digital phone service (many businesses) then you would need a digital adapter (availible from polycom) .. or you can connect it to most Cell phones via a standard 2.5mm sterio (headset) cable.. (male/male)
you can view these things here
http://www.officedirectinc.com/Phones/poly2w.htm

the "EX" in your part number indicates that its expandable . you can add up to two wireless microphones

Tried to reregistering

Hi
Please try the following procedure:

Connect the charger and then plug the power supply unit into the wall socket.
Now insert the two batteries supplied
To register your handset to base station, place it in the main base station with the display facing upward. After approx. one minute, the handset's internal number is Displayed (e.g. 2). Successful registration is signaled by a confirmation tone. Replace the newly registered handset into the charger and leave to charge for Approximately 16 hours. The charging status icon flashes on the handset to indicate that the batteries are being charged.

To register it manually:

Press the MENU options button.
Press the DOWN button until the display shows REGISTER HS.
Press the OK button. Display shows PIN.
Enter your 4-digit Pin (original setting 0000).
Press the OK button. Display flashes REGISTER HS.
Following the user guide for the base station you are registering to place the base into registration mode.

Please do rate the solution as "FixYa" if found useful and revert for further assistance.

Thanks
Rylee
