no sound on incoming calls

<< < (2/2)

lhm.:
"Switching your OBi's Ethernet ports to 100 mb/s full duplex:
1. Dial *** 0
2. Enter option 27 and press #
3. Press 1 to set a new value
4. Enter a value of 1 and press #
5. Press 1 to confirm/save
6. Hang up
7. Wait for the OBi to reboot"

Hope it helps,

L,

Yes, I did set the static ip on the obi device and I'm using sip. I had another look at my router and noticed a spot to bypass the router altogether using the static ip. They recommend against it because then there's no protection for the device, but I figure there's nothing to protect anyway? So I tried the bypass and now everything is working great. Sound is stronger with almost no delays. Is there any danger to bypassing?

Thanks again,


pc44,

I will try your suggestion to switch to 100 mb/s full duplex.

thanks,

B

Ostracus:
DMZ most likely.

lk96:
yes, must be DMZ.

About risk: the question is your tolerance. In theory, someone may hijack
your Obi and use it to make "free" calls for him/herself. There is always
the risk for someone trying to vandalize it. And for sure there is also increased
risk for DoS attacks. 

On the other hand: a functioning Obi is more useful than a non functioning one.

My suggestions are twofold:
1. Since you determined that its your NAT/firewall that was causing the issue, try
to troubleshoot it.

2. Make sure that you use a strong password for the admin user of the Obi.
