Hi there, Could try one more time. The IP address for the obihai and the PC are different, but can't access the webpage for both modem/ router and the obihai as well. Can't add device on obitalk either. Any suggestion?
This sounds bizarre -- can you confirm that the PC was able to access the modem/router web pages (and the Internet), but when you plugged in the OBi, the PC is no longer able to access the modem/router at 192.168.1.1, even though it can still access the Internet?
I don't trust the "specialized" nature of the LAN ports on that device. Try the following: power off modem, PC and OBi. Connect the OBi to the LAN port where the PC was previously connected, i.e. the port that we know has proper access to the Internet. Leave the PC disconnected for now. Power up modem, wait for it to come ready, then power up the OBi. Wait one minute, then try **9 222 222 222 . If that works, we know that the OBi is accessing the Internet ok. Next, power up the PC and connect it to the other "broadband" port. Report whether it can access the Internet, the modem web page and the OBi web page.
If the above can't be made to work, one choice is to use a single port on the modem, with an external router. Another option that may work is setting a static IP address in the OBi or the PC, but if the person there messes up, one may lose control of the device.
