Missing device

<< < (2/2)

Tried the LAN port and it still doesn't work, just times out trying to connect. When I connect to the LAN port the power light goes from solid green to flashing on and off. Do you think the unit may be faulty?

I guess you just moved the ethernet cable from the WAN port to the LAN port.

1.  You need to keep the WAN port connected to your router. Else the LED flashes.

2. Temporarily disconnect the PC from the router and connect instead to the 202's LAN port. Ensure the PC is set to get its IP address automatically (ie DHCP not static). Reboot the PC and point the browser at 192.168.10.1.

If you are trying to get into the local device (as opposed to using OBiTalk--the web site by Obihai), you need to follow the instructions here: http://www.obihai.com/faq/OBi202-sec/Howto-Access-Web-from-WAN

The link will tell you how to enable WAN:

Here's one method of enabling WAN from the Phone connected to the OBi:
- Dial ***0 from the phone connected to the OBi202
- Enter 30#
- Press 1 to Enter a New Value
- Press 1# to Enable
- Press 1 to Save

To put the OBi into bridge mode--on the attached phone dial ***0, 31#, 1,1#,1 (comma means pause and listen)

After entering a string, you could just hang up.

After having done this, you would then be able to update the firmware according to Steve's instructions. Not saying this will solve your situation but it seems like you haven't been able to access the OBi locally to make the firmware update.

Thanks, that's got the device back on the dashboard. I'll try and configure it again tomorrow. Strangely though I already had the most current version of the firmware installed. Again thanks so much to everyone for all your help - very much appreciated.
