Should the internet connection light be on green on my Obi unit?

(1/4) > >>

otherwhirl:
Seems like I used to see it on (or at least blinking more frequently...)

Folks have been complaining to me that my calls sound choppy.

I have high speed 20mbps (yeah right! f'n' comcast! NEVER accurate...)

My Obi 110 was working awesome (up until I started bragging to others :-\)

Need to get this resolved.

Any helpful feedback is appreciated.

RonR:
The second LED from the left on the OBi indicates Ethernet port activity.  It blinks occasionally when there is no call in progress and blinks fairly steadily when there is one.

Is the sound choppy when calling the echo test at : **9 222 222 222

otherwhirl:
Hi,

yes, so when I did the echoe test. There is a slight delay and it cuts out here and there.

is my internet speed the culprit? again sorry ass comcast is charging me for 20mbps. high speed plan
the speed test clearly show it aint happening.

what's even more "interesting" is how much slower my speeds show on their own speedtest site:

Rather than insufficient bandwidth, I'd suspect packet loss or jitter.

From a DOS box, run:

ping -n 100 74.125.157.125

When it completes, you should see something like:

Ping statistics for 74.125.157.125:
    Packets: Sent = 100, Received = 100, Lost = 0 (0% loss),
Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds:
    Minimum = 50ms, Maximum = 55ms, Average = 52ms

There should be no packets lost and the difference between Minimum, Maximim, and Average round trip times should be small.

man you are talking Greek to me :-\

"From a DOS box, run:"  I'm on a Mac for starters. Is there a tutorial for what you are describing?

Thanks
