Help! out of town, Can I remotely tell if I lost power at home using Obi?

(1/2) > >>

pjjs:
I heard there was bad weather in my home town.  I have an Obi at home and I am on vacation with an internet connection.  Can I check if the power is on at home using my Obi?  Is there some dialing trick or web portal to verify Obi has a heartbeat?

Hi pjjs,

You could log into the OBiTALK Web Portal to see if your OBI is successfully talking with the Portal.

Log in to the OBiTALK Web Portal here.  Then, check the Status under the OBi Dashboard for your OBi Endpoint.  If you point to the Status, it should say either Online or Offline.

Hope it helps, :)

Logged in.  "Soft phone" SpDial 1 is Red.  "Home" SpDial 2 is Green.  I don't know if this gives me any info.

pjjs,

Assuming your "Home" OBi Endpoint is the one at your home, I would then say your OBi is currently powered on and online.  If you only own one OBi, then I imagine we are talking about the same OBi! :)

I do have only one Obi.   

If I can cause a voice mail message in my G-Mail to be created, will that prove the Obi is powered on?
