Updated firmware OBi 200/202/212 devices?
Taoman:
Just wondering if anyone can get a Trunk Group to work as a PrimaryLine with the 8680EX firmware? For me this still doesn't work. I had downgraded to 5859EX to get Trunk Groups working. But now, because of the Google root certificate issue, I'm forced to upgrade.
@azrobert
Don't you use Trunk Groups? Do they work for you as a PrimaryLine?
azrobert:
TGs never worked for me. Maybe not never, but a very long time. The circumvention is not to use {(Mpli):pli). I use {(Mtg1):tg1}. I’m not sure if you need to change the Phone DigitMap.
This is working for me on 8680EX.
The symptom when using the Primary Line was no dial tone.
MSRobi:
I have an Obi202 device. I downloaded the firmware OBi2xx-3-2-2-8680EX.fw from obitalk.com.
I logged into my local web config (http://192.168.249.5), followed the instructions and applied the new firmware.
After it successfully applied itself and rebooted, everything is working properly except now when I try to access the local web page, it comes back with "The requested URL was not found!". I know that the device is still on 192.168.249.5 since I have the obi202 assigned as a static IP. I also double-checked by ***1 on my phone and heard it say the IP address is 192.168.249.5.
Another interesting tidbit...the title of the page (on the browser tab) shows "Obi1000". My OBi dashboard looks good, everything shows up as "Connected". My settings look fine and were untouched by the firmware update.
Anybody else have this happen to them? Any suggestions on workarounds or fixes to get local access to obi config?
UPDATE: I figured it out, see my next post.
MSRobi:
I misunderstood the instructions on updating the firmware. This is very important (but admittedly confusing):
"NOTE: For the OBi202 ATA Device model, to access the integral local web-page via the WAN port (if prompted), at phone plugged-in, dial: ***0, 30#, 1, 1# and 1."
Basically what it is doing is enabling local web config, which is disabled after the firmware update. I had to pause after entering "***" and listen for obi to respond "Device configuration menu" before I entered "0" (you can enter "0" as soon as you hear the response). When you enter "30#", it should respond with "option 30 current value is disabled...", then you press 1 to enter the new value, then "1#" to enable option 30, then "1" to save the new value.
The "(if prompted)" is what threw me off initially. Nothing prompted me after the firmware successfully updated.

Happens to everyone with an OBi202. In addition to enabling web gui access from the LAN port I would suggest switching your OBi202 to bridge mode. Otherwise you will have a Double NAT going on which is to be avoided if it isn't necessary.
From the local web gui:
Router Configuration-->LAN settings-->OperationMode
