Call Queues not working; no agents phones ring

We're deploying S4B, but find that our Call Queues simply don't work. We've set up some; they look great via the web interface and via Get-CsHuntGroup -- but when dialed, none of the users phones rin...

What kind of phones are they? I ask because I recently moved our small company to SfB Online. We originally bought Yealink phones, and they did not ring with Call Queues.

I ended up having to create an account that assigned delegates and using the team ring function. But that's not practical in a large office.

We ended up returning the Yealink phones for separate reasons, and purchased Polycom. They seem to work with the Call Queue functionality.

They're Polycom VVX 501s;

We eventually got this fixed with a support ticket. Nothing was wrong on our end, things just required support to do some unclear debugging. (Ticket #6459528)

We've been generally very disappointed by the service. Outbound caller ID hasn't worked either, despite being correctly configured by Set-CsCallingLineIdentity. (Ticket #6477472)

Ah interesting. We switched to the VVX 501s and have been having pretty good luck with them.

For anyone else out there - as of the time of this post, their phones do not ring from Call Queues. It's buried in their poorly translated documentation that it's not supported.
