Unable to add device OBi 200
Ally50:
Has anyone found a solution yet? I have been trying for 3 days and still unable to add a device. This began when I decided I wanted to move the OBI200 to a different location using a wifi dongle. Working fine before. Tried original location and hook up and still no go. Echo test works. Thanks for any help you may provide.

There is no need to remove a device from your dashboard when moving it to a different location or network.

Except I already moved it and now am unable to add the device to OBI Talk. It never connects to the server.

Assuming you have tried adding without the "GV setup" option? I was able to add my new OBI202 after a couple of attempts. It never happened within the 15s the instructions say. I just repeatedly did the **5 till it appeared. Assuming what folks on the forums are saying brute force is your only option. I then ran into a problem getting GV added as a service. No matter what I did it would say offline. Same scenario brute forced it, then got busy and when i came back it all of sudden showed "Connected". Luck of the draw.
Try at least 10 time or till the timeout counter reaches 0. Then if it doesn't work try again later. I was able to add the device around 10PM and 8AM PST. I even removed / added it back 2 times while trying to get GV working.
I did add port forwarding for the OBI ports to my router to no visual change. I was able to add the device both with and without the port forwarding. Not sure about setting up GV. Was going to try connecting the device directly to the modem today if it hadn't started working. Good luck!

Anybody had any luck adding a device recently? I have been trying on and off for 6 hours and no joy. :(
