Hi everyone:
I recently switched from using a purely local configuration to using OBitalk's web interface to configure my VoIP carrier's services.
Where do I set the password for the OBi, if I want OBiTalk to be able to still configure the OBi? I can't see any place for it when managing the device settings through OBiTalk.
Thanks
Open the OBiTALK device dashboard: http://www.obitalk.com/obinet/pg/obhdev (http://www.obitalk.com/obinet/pg/obhdev)
Click your device's name. On the next page, enter the password next to "Webpage Admin Password". Click the "Save" button.

You don't.
Once you log in to obitalk.com and access your dashboard you can configure your OBi via the basic or expert modes.
But before that you need to log in locally to your Obi and enable "Obitalk Provisioning".
Well, okay, so we've got two different answers here. The OBi is all set up now-it's working great. All I need to do is set the password. I just checked and it's using the default password. I don't want strangers getting into it.
My answer was correct. Once you have converted over to using OBiTALK to configure your device, don't go back to using the local web interface. However, setting the password on the portal does change the device's local web UI password, too, and you can do that to replace the default password, and to use it to sign in locally to view settings. Just don't change any settings on the local UI.
That's what figured, and that worked. Thanks.
