I puzzled over what is and how to work the DMZ setting:
"if the Echo Test call failed, please put the OBi device in the DMZ setting in your router's configuration."
Is the power LED still blinking green? If yes it would appear that you have impaired reading and comprehension skills.
From the page I referred you to:
If the power LED is
blinking GREEN, that indicates that the
OBi device cannot get an IP address from your router. In other words, the OBi device cannot connect to the internet.
Verify if the ethernet cable is securely connected, and you see a link light on the router port on which your OBi device is connected to. For
OBi202 users, verify you connect to the "Internet" port (blue label) and reboot your router.
Check to see if the
power LED shows solid GREEN. Then try to call **9 222 222 222 to reach our echo test. If the Echo Test is successful, then the OBi device has internet access. If the Echo Test call failed, please put the OBi device in the DMZ setting in your router's configuration."
The most common reasons for the power LED of a 202 blinking green are:
1. Ethernet cable not plugged in fully at both ends.
2. Ethernet cable plugged into the LAN socket of the 202.
3. Faulty ethernet cable. Try another one.
4. Faulty port on router. Try another one.
5. Faulty Obi202.
Power LED flashing green will never be fixed by putting the OBi in router's DMZ.
