OBI200 Can receive calls Cannot call out

<< < (2/2)

drgeoff:
Can you confirm that your phone or base station is connected directly to the OBi and not via house wiring or any indirect method?

justus:
Non cordless phone worked so I carefully analyzed what I was doing on the cordless phone. The dial tone did go away on first key hit but came back later- here's why...

I hope this helps anyone using a cordless VTech phone & going from a vonage box to an obi200 box...

On the vonage box you can hit the VTech talk button - get a dial tone - punch in the number-wait a sec and the call goes through OR you can hit the Talk button a 2nd time and the call will go through BUT on the  obi200 box hitting the talk button a 2nd time hangs up the call and you get an instant dial tone again.
I reckon I tend to think of the talk button on the Vtech phone as a "send" button so I had the habit of hitting talk/send a 2nd time.
Embarassing but figure this may help someone out in same situation some day.

Thank you for your help
