Thanks for the replys. Looks like everything is working okay as of now. However i made a mistake and put the obi202 on the google account i want to use for email. How can i change it to another account? My second number is fine. I know i can switch my google number to a different account but if i do that how would i re configure the obi202 or will it still work since i will be using the same number only on a different account. Thanks



The OBi doesn't know your GV number, all you given it is your account signin info.  Just change that info to your new account.

I came across a new issue last night. i had my wifes computer connected to the router port on the obi202 since all my main router ports are used and she went to print a page and it would not find the printer. I unplugged one of the main router ports and plugged her computer into it and all worked good and she was able to print. Why will her computer not see the printer when its plugged into the obi202 router port?

I would suspect that the OBi202 is getting internet access from the main router, but is NOT part of the home network - which is why the printer is not accessible.  I don't use the 202, but if it's assigning addresses via DHCP that would be the issue.  Disable that, which then makes it a switch, and your wife should be able to print.

Hoosier:
You are correct. my obi202 is connected to my router. How to i do the disable? Sorry for so many questions but having trouble knowing how to do all this.

Felix:
go to administration page on the device (not on Obihai portal). Navigate to Router Configuration - LAN Settings. Switch OperationMode to bridge. Now your wife's computer will get IP address from the router; not from OBi202. That way it will be able to connected to other devices on the same segment.

For more info (as crappy as it is) search OBi Admin guide for "switch" or "OperationMode"
