Can someone help me set up, please?
theNOTSOwiz:
I checked the router settings (I have cable internet)and it is DHCP.
What about the flashing power light? Did I not give it enough time? It usually takes 30 seconds or so, that's what I was banking on.
I've double checked the IP address, the proxy server and my username is my callcentric number. I copied it straight from the callcentric website. I've done all that.
Man, this is all very discouraging. :'(

The OBi should work connected directly to a cable modem. The only important part is power cycling the cable modem after the connection to a new device is made.
The fact that **9 222 222 222 works says the OBi can talk over the Internet to the OBiTALK server. Generally, SIP providers shouldn't be a problem if you're getting that far.
If your router has any ALG support, turn it off.
You could also try forwarding ports 5060 - 5061 to your OBi, but that really shouldn't be necessary. Routers can be funny, though, which is why I was hoping to bypass it to eliminate it as a possible culprit.
theNOTSOwiz:
I will try it again. Maybe I didn't do it correctly.
RonR:
BTW, have you terminated the softphone running on your PC while you're working with the OBi? Some SIP providers allow multiple simultaneous registrations per account, others do not.
theNOTSOwiz:
An update, I redid your bypass and was able to make a call. The first time, I turned off the modem but did not power cycle it (I know, I know, should have known better!). But at least it did work that way. Now what?
I don't know what ALG support it, but I was unable to find it in my router config. Do you still recommend port forwarding? I'll have to do a search on how to do that to make sure I do it right.
The softphone has been disabled, with the same results as before.
