azrobert: Where did you put those settings in? Not sure where "System Management" is. No such thing I see in Win7 or in the web interface.
After you sign into the OBi100 locally, "System Management" is found on the left column of the page. Click on it then click "Network Setting".
It is found in the same place in OBiTalk via OBi Expert.

I also tried using the phone to assign the static IP. I hit ***, then 4, then 1 and the voice prompted me to "Enter IP address, then pound." Great! So I entered "192168135#" (for example) and it continually tells me that's invalid no matter what number I put in.
I never entered an IP address via the phone, but assume you enter it like this: "192*168*1*35#"

All good now. I used the MAC to force the IP and then, once I got access to the device (glad to see that instead of JUST a web interface) I also set it to static there.

192168135 is only 9 digits. Without separators there are many ways those could be interpreted.
192.168.13.5
192.168.1.35
192.16.81.35
192.16.8.135
192.1.68.135
19.216.81.35
19.216.8.135
19.21.68.135
1.92.168.135

I think you miss the core point. I get that it's only 9 digits, but ran into the problem clearly when trying to enter it. Think about it. Go try it for yourself and don't hit Pound and you'll see the problem without having to commit to anything.
The problem was, how do you enter a period?
The prompt didn't provide guidance. Someone here assumed that using asterisks might work, but wasn't certain.

No, you missed the point that entering less than 12 digits was never going to work. A few seconds thought should have been enough to realise that there were only two possibilities:
1. Expand to 12 digits by inserting zeros as appropriate eg 192168001035.
2. Use some key to input the '.'. A standard phone has only 0-9, *and #. All the numerals are required and the # is used as a terminator. That leaves only the *.
