Connecting the Phone to the Network
You
must
connect
the
phone
to
a
wired
LAN
or
WiFi
network
in
order
to
obtain
phone
service.
In
most
cases
your
network
will
require
an
internet
connection
and
your
service
provider
will
set
out
requirements
for
the
required
capacity
of
your
connection
to
support
voice
services.
In
some
cases
the
OBi
may
be
deployed
on
a
LAN
or
WAN
with
no
Internet
access
–
for
example
in
a
corporate
environment
within
a
voice-­‐only
VLAN.
Connecting to the LAN over Wired Ethernet
Connect
a
Category-­‐5
(or
better)
Ethernet
cable
from
an
available
switch
port
to
the
RJ45
Port
labeled
SW
on
the
back
of
the
phone.
Note
that
the
SW
port
also
supports
PoE
-­‐
if
it
is
connected
to
a
standard
PoE
switch
port,
it
can
draw
power
from
the
switch
without
needing
to
connect
to
an
OBiPS
12V
DC
power
adapter
(sold
separately).
Connecting to the WLAN over WiFi
The
OBi
can
also
connect
to
a
phone
service
over
a
WiFi
network.
The
OBi1062
has
built-­‐in
WiFi
and
the
OBi1032
requires
the
OBiWiFi
USB
Wireless
dongle
in
order
to
connect
to
a
wireless
network.
The
phone
must
join
the
wireless
network
by
connecting
to
a
WiFi
Access
Point
(AP).
The
user
may
use
the
WiFi
setup
utility
within
the
Settings
app
to
scan
for
APs
that
are
nearby,
identify
the
correct
AP
by
its
broadcast
SSID
(WiFi
network
name)
and
connect
to
it.
If
security
is
enabled
on
the
AP,
an
input
prompt
will
pop
up
on
the
screen
to
let
you
enter
the
WiFi
access
password.
Upon
entry
of
correct
credentials
and
connection
to
WiFi
the
network,
the
screen
will
display
an
icon
on
the
status
bar
that
indicates
the
access
point
is
connected
and
also
shows
the
signal
strength.
For
further
setup
information,
read
“WiFi
Setup”
in
the
“OBi
Phone
Apps”
section
of
