OBi Phone Setup Tutorial
RichardRemmele:
I have a long time setup with Obi100 and now Obi200 which originally required a landline and Google Voice. I want to eliminate the landline. It is not clear to me how I do that.

If you get an OBI phone it eliminates the need for the router. Mine's now a paper weight/dust colllector. It's so much nicer having the IP phone only.

To eliminate a land line you need an internet connection. Was your internet running over the top of your copper
phone line? You'll still need an internet connection then plug you analog phone into the back of the 202. I replaced my 202 with an OBI phone which now runs over my internet connection without the need for the 202.

No Obi requires a landline and Google Voice.
Your post is not clear as to what you are trying to accomplish
If you have GV and it works, then what is the issue?
Did you mean to say you had an Obi 110?

Am a newbie and just connected an OBI202. Have followed your phone tutorial to the point quoted below. I have another service provider that is on the obitalk list, namely, voip.ms, and I did UNcheck connection via google voice. I just want to connect using voip.ms However when I select the "configuration helper" link for voip.ms (or any other one, for that matter) on the approved providers list the page dashboard page refreshes and there is no change or place to enter provider credentials. Please advise what is wrong/
Thanks, JeffNCC
If you have an existing SIP account you want to put onto the OBi, scroll down the screen to "OBiTALK Compatible Service Providers" and click next. On the next page you can either select your service provider (if they are listed) and enter your account credentials, or click "Generic Service Provider" and enter your SIP credentials and service providers SIP server settings.
