Wired Access Point
dom1:
I ran the test and passed. Here's a seperate question. The verizon routers are apparently modem/router combinations Can I plug the Obi into a router that is just a router? Thanks

Yes, presuming that router is plugged into a modem. Now if you plug the router into a modem/router combination, you will need to do some setting combination to have only one of the devices provide the DHCP.

I plugged the obi into the access point, it doesn't have a modem but it's hooked up via coax to the main router/modem combination. It seems to be working, can't say yet whether the delay is gone will have to test further.

I had to switch the Obi back to the main router closest to the service coming from the street. I had a ton of dropped calls when it was attached to the access point.

If you plug the OBi into the access point, you MUST put that device into Bridge Mode, i.e, turn off DHCP, etc., which would be handled by your main Router/Modem Combo. There should be a setting on the Access Point (AP) for Bridge Mode, otherwise you will have "Double NAT" issues. What is the Model Number of the Access Point Router (I assume it has wireless capabilities also)? Can you provide a link to the online manual for the AP Router?
