“stutter” dial tone for Google Voice message indication
RonR:
Jeff,
I'm not familiar with a FIOS setup (I sure wish it was an option for me). Normally, routers simply have an Ethernet switch as their output ports and all LAN devices are connected together, allowing them all to communicate with each other. Isn't your PC and OBi each connected to one of the router's 4 LAN ports?
jbrune:
My Obi is connected to a LAN port (192.168.1.4) and my computer is connected via wifi (192.168.1.3).
RonR:
WiFi is normally treated as part of the wired LAN.
I don't know what the problem is in your case, but it appears to be unique to your FIOS installation.

That shouldn't really matter; a WiFi connection isn't functionally any different than a (many-to-one) wired connection. The router doesn't wall off the WiFi devices from the wired ones (at least none that I've seen). I don't have a theory what is preventing a direct login, though. Could it possibly be a software firewall blocking the attempted connection on the system where you fired up the browser? Do you get an error in the broswer if you wait long enough, or do you simply get no response at all? It might be useful to use some tool to trap and display the actual HTTP stream to see what's happening. Also, you might try opening a command window and simply try pinging the IP address of the Obi, and see what happens with that; if *that* fails, then it definitely ain't the browser.

For some reason, it is just started working late last night when I put it in the browser. Maybe just a server problem yesterday, but thanks to everyone for their patience.
However, I have not been able to fix the problem. I cleared Message Waiting, tried checking Default for Message Waiting, and tried doing the same with MWIEnable and X_VMWIEnable. What happens is that often when I do that and reset the Obi it will work for a while and I won't get the MWI on my phone or the stutter tone, but after I hit talk, get the dial tone, and then hang up it then reverts to MWI, both on my phone and stutter dial tone and on the Obi IP web page. I don't have any unread text or new voice messages. I also tried closing Gmail (bc of the GV calling feature) and that did not work either.
Any other ideas on how to fix this, or should I just turn off all voice mail notification features on my Panasonic phone until either Obi or Google fixes this?
Thanks again for everyone's generous help,
Jeff
