Pros and Cons of using OBiTALK Provisioning and OBiTALK portal for configuration
Felix:
I think pfranks is asking about applying firmware updates from OBihai, right? Those are two separate settings - you can decide whether to push firmware update and whether to push Obitalk changes independently.
Sorry if I misunderstood your question.
ibotalk:
right---sorry for the confusion
so if i accept firmware updates from Obihai does that then over-ride any changes i have made previously via the obi portal? (because, for example, it sets everything back to default values; meaning i would then have to reapply my locally desired changes)
jimates:
If you are managing a setting, either from the portal or from the device, a firmware update should not change the action of the setting.

Just as a data point, I would like to repost the text of a comment by ShermanObi that was originally posted another thread - everything beyond this paragraph is what he wrote there:
If you disable OBiTALK provisioning or OBiTALK Service you definitely lose functionality. Any changes made to the OBi device should be performed via the OBiTALK portal and OBi Expert Configuration pages (if required).
By keeping OBiTALK Service and OBiTALK provisioning enabled, the following services are available today (more will be available in the future):
OBi-to-OBi Calling Including: Calling to/from your OBi to/from the OBiON for iPhone or Android and OBiApp for PC
OBi-to-OBi-to-SIP or Google Voice Service Calling (and vice-versa)OBiTALK Device Configuration Including Configuration of SIP and Google Voice Service(s)
Emergency Calling Service Set-Up
Convenient Setting Time-Zone, Attendant PIN, etc.

I have something I need to understand how to deal with. I may be missing something which is easy with so much to take in.
How can individual Obi 110 be set up with different speed dial lists with ObiTalk provisioning enabled? I am under the impression that the speed dial lists would be under the control of the portal.
Thanks!
