Why the long delay before an incoming landline call rings the OBI110 phone port?
RonR:
RingDelay is time the OBi waits before processing InboundCallRoute rules. If RingDelay is set too short and CallerID is not decoded by the time it expires, InboundCallRoute rules based on CallerID will not be effective:
Delay in milliseconds after initial ring detected on the LINE port before the device acts on the call (to route it according to InboundCallRoute). This value could be 0 so that the call is handled immediately. However, you should consider setting it to a large enough value to allow OBi to completely decode the PSTN Caller-ID signal if the service is available on the PSTN line. This is required if the InboundCallRoute relies on Caller-ID information to route the incoming call.
Novice:
So it looks there are some conflicting reports. To clarify, if i don't have any InboundCallRoute handling, can I set it to 0 and still have the caller ID show up after a ring or 2 (same as if the phone is directly connected to the telco), or will the OBI not be able to display the caller ID at all.
Thanks

No you will not have the caller id to display on your phone if you set the ring delay to zero.
On a Line Port call, the OBi listens for the caller id during the ring delay period. When that period expires it quits listening.

where you fix the delay?

There is nothing to fix if you use the default settings. The default setting is 4 seconds (4000ms).
The setting is under Physical Interfaces-->LINE Port-->RingDelay
