Use OBi110 without a network connection

(1/3) > >>

PeSiw:
I would like to use the OBi110 to manage outgoing calls from the PHONE port to the LINE port only. After it is configured through the web interface, I would like to disconnect it from the network and have it operate without a network connection.

It is set with a static IP. It works fine while connected to the network. When I disconnect it from the network, the Power LED flashes green. When the phone goes off-hook the IVR complains about "network status .. IP address not available"!?

Any suggestions?

azrobert:
I have an OBi110 with a static IP that I configure locally.
I disconnected it from the network and I still can make outbound calls via the Line port.

I have all the Auto Provisioning methods disabled.
I don't know why that would make a difference.
How did you assign a static IP address?

PeSiw:
I changed the IP through the web page ... just a static version of the one the DHCP server provided.

I have all of the auto provisioning methods disabled.

Can you make a call from the Phone port to the Line port?

Is your power LED flashing green after you remove the network connection and cycle the power?

Everything works perfectly when the network cable is connected. As soon as I remove the cable and cycle the power, the Power LED flashes green and exhibits the behavior described above!?

azrobert:
When I remove the network cable the power LED flashes green and the phone LED turns off. This is expected behavior. I also can make outbound calls via line port.

Nothing changes after a power cycle.

This is how I defined a static address:
AddressingType: Static
IPAddress: 192.168.1.100
SubnetMask: 255.255.255.0
DefaultGateway: 192.168.1.1
DNSServer1: 192.168.1.1

I experience the same problem as PeSiw trying to make an outbound PSTN Line Port call if the ethernet link is down.   Sometimes after I disconnect the ethernet cable or repower the OBi110 with the ethernet cable disconnected I can get a PSTN Line dial tone once but then I get the IP address not available message ... Reason 00.

I have the Static IP address defined the same as posted by Azrobert.  I tried enabling/disabling OBiTalk, removing the NTP Time Server check and repowering the adapter.  I also made sure nothing was trying to register. 

There is something that causes the problem because Azrobert does not experience it, however I can not figure it out.  The problem has something to do with no signal from the router. 

I seems like it is an OBi firmware problem.  My OBi110 is running firmware: 1.3.0 (Build: 2824).  Maybe the problem is fixed in a later version.  The problem has been around for awhile.  There are other postings about it but no firm solutions except for the Static IP Address. 

I believe the problem would affect the ability to make a PSTN call if the router was down.
