Hi,
I'm having an issue similar to this one:
http://www.obitalk.com/forum/index.php?topic=334.0I have an Obi202. My set up is TimeWarner cable modem connected to a Netgear WGR614v8 wireless router; the Obi202 is connected to the router via an ethernet cable out of the Obi's "Internet" port. I'm using GoogleVoice as my "service provider". Everything initially connects correctly and I'm able to make and receive calls using the Obi.
I've been debugging this issue across several days and I think I've narrowed it down to a DHCP issue. What happens is on when the DHCP lease issued by the Netgear expires, the Netgear log shows a DHCP IP being reissued to the Obi. At this point (or within 5 minutes of) the Obi shows status Offline in the web portal and I'm no longer able to make/receive calls.
The problem persists across the following configurations:
- Obi with static IP as assigned by the Netgear (I didn't configure the Obi settings to say "I'm using a static IP"...do I need to?)
- Obi in bridge mode with static IP as assigned by the Netgear.
I'm currently trying without the static IP to see what happens; though I have to wait 12 hours because that's how long the DHCP lease time is.
Some additional info:
When using a static IP, after the DHCP lease expires and the Obi goes offline, I can still get to the Obi via it's static IP. The Obi's SP1 Service Status shows: Backing Off (0s):TCP connection to 125.130.125.74 failed
Any advice?
Thanks!
Paul
