I am trying to set up a OBi 110.
I have gone through the set up directions/videos etc but connot get my system working.
I am using a ATT Uverse 3800HGV-B router.
I have invested over 4 hours and am about ready to throw in the towel and return it to the store.

The power light is solid green.
The light to the right (looks like saturn) blinks green sporadically but is NEVER solid green.
The light above the phone icon blinks consistantly on then off which is supposed to me that I am on the phone but that is certainly not the case.
The light to the far right is off.

Needless to say I am very frustrated and would appreciate anyones advice.

Thanks

If you unplug your phone, does the Phone LED flashing stop?

Thanks for the reply.
The only way to get the light to stop flashing is to unplug the power.

Simply unplugging the phone does not do it.

When I "reset" the machine by powering it off and back on I do get a dial tone for a very brief amount of time.

I do wonder if it has something to do with the router. I would very much like to get it to work.

I think you should be able to get a dialtone after a factory reset, even if there is no connection. It is generated by the OBi. At least that's how I think it works.

Your OBi110 sounds defective to me. I would contact support chat on http://www.obitalk.com/obinet/pg/obhdev/owned/ They may suggest returning the device to the seller or may discuss warranty replacement.
