You've been dealing with this issue for over a year.

Given that you have a new-ish router with 5GHz capability, I'd suggest you simply buy the new 5GHz OBiWiFi dongle and enjoy the improvement.

Its not the same problem. The previous problem dealt with disconnects. With the assistance of the Obi support personnel that one seemed to get resolved. The problem lately is not with disconnects but the outside party not hearing the audio.

I have an obiwifi USB stick in an Obi 200 device. Frequently (but not always) the inbound caller cannot hear me and hangs up. And when I call somebody they usually complain about distortion and bad audio. I temporarily disconnected the obiwifi and use a hard wired connection and none of these problems occur. But that's only a temporary solution because the obi device cannot be placed near the router.
What should I do? Get one of the obiwifi5G devices?
These symptoms clearly point to a poor-quality WiFi connection at the OBi. Spend the $25 on a new OBiWiFi dongle and solve the problem.

Its not a problem with the wifi. I have plenty of other devices in the same relative location operating correctly. And my wifi analyzer shows that signal strength is good.
Next time I ask a question in this forum, I would appreciate it if you would not offer your usual useless advice.

But in the opening post you wrote "I temporarily disconnected the obiwifi and use a hard wired connection and none of these problems occur."
Anyway I expect you know that Wi-Fi is not the only alternative to an ethernet cable when you want an IP connection between two points in your residence.
