Connecting OBI100 to home telephone distribution in basement - How?
vskatusa:
Hi, I am currently using OBI100 along with Google voice and love it!
I will be moving to a house and would like to connect the OBI100 to the EXISTING telephone distribution (disconnect the existing incoming telephone line and instead use OBI100) in the basement. The idea is to use the EXISTING telephone jack in each of the rooms with an ordinary telephone - Is this possible? What are the gotcha's? Can 2 people call at the same time? Any suggestions or best practices? Do i need to disconnect the incoming telephone line to my house?

This should help. There are a few other guides if you Google it.

Wow too much detail.....Basically from my "scimming" the article here is "to do list":
Disconnect the Telephone line from the telephone companyPlug in a old fashioned telephone into a plug and make sure you do not hear any dial tonePlug the OBI100 to ANY telephone line and connect to the network
Have I got the above right?
