I am trying to decide what VoIP phone adapter to purchase.
I know that MJ+ will work through a computer (connected via USB), using the computer as the internet gateway, or directly through an internet router (connected via ethernet).
Can OBi also work that way?
Sometimes, in resorts, one must pay a fee (perhaps $30 per week) for a wireless internet connection for one laptop. It would be desirable to be able to connect the OBi device through the laptop to use that connection.
Sometimes, in hotels, it can be tricky to choose a working wireless router, and to successfully connect to it using the assigned password. Often one needs to login via an intranet web page. In those situations, also, one would want to connect using the PC, and piggyback the OBi on that connection.
Can any of the OBi models be configured to work that way? How?
I could, of course, just use a software-based ViOP service with a headset in those situations, but the sound quality might not be as good.
What are your thoughts on this?
