SkOrPn,
Hi, I think some of the settings expose the router with more ports than is needed. I think these settings will work.
Protocol: = UDP only should work
Local Port Range: = same as the OBi in this section of the OBi web page
Service Providers>RTP>LocalPortMin
Service Providers>RTP>LocalPortMax
Remote IP Range: 255.255.255.0 (This or whatever your subnet mask is in your lan setting) Will work if you leave it as is.
Remote Port Range:
Service Providers>RTP>LocalPortMin
Service Providers>RTP>LocalPortMax
You might need GV port open 5222 UDP (Not sure about this one I have not seen anyone needing to port forward this one yet)
DMZ: Better to setup a Dyndns account rather than putting it in the DMZ. I think your router might have that ability. You do not even need a Dyndns or DMZ setup if you do not plan on connecting to the OBi from the outside.
Thank you very much, that helped me very much figure out what I need to do. I hope I dont need to also port forward, but I would think I do if my firewall is enabled. I will test without it first. Thanks...
DMZ: Ok, so DMZ is not necessary unless connecting to it remotely via the Internet? Sounds good to me...
I will report back my success or lack there of tomorrow night after playing around with the OBi. I only got this thing for its wireless N performance and never really played around with its settings much, except for to create my wireless network. Maybe now I can learn this thing and create rules for my Netflix box as well. lol
Thank You!

Ok, Im not doing it correctly. When I go to click on "save settings" the router instantly goes to the login page, and when I login again and go back to the QOS page, the settings I entered are back to default. So I'm going to play with it in the DMZ for a while since thats a very easy setting, and see if I even need qos. Quality appears to be no better than MagicJack imo, so maybe I need to hunt down an affordable ITSP that has better quality than Google Voice. I assume the low static like quality is GV. I'm just happy I don't have to leave my computer on 24/7, lol...

Normally, Google Voice quality is very good. There should be no static or breaking up. I've had Google Voice since before it was Google Voice (GrandCentral), and the quality is nearly as good as landline or any VoIP provider.
Try temporarily connecting your OBi directly to your modem and see if the quality problems go away. Make sure you reboot the modem and the OBi after making the connection.

Hmm, I tried it directly to the modem and the OBi, would not connect and the Modem activity blue LED turned red, and the OBi power light kept blinking. BUT, I did not shut down the modem, I just turned off the OBi before connecting it.
Will try again and I will report back soon. Thanks

The modem is the important one to reboot. Most ISP's only allow one device to be connected and validate it by MAC address. If you change devices, the modem has to be rebooted in order to capture the new MAC address.
