GETTING STATIC ON BOTH ENDS

Post by jack_bauer » Sat Feb 28, 2009 3:25 pm

My current setup is Ooma hub with a landline.
Lately I've been getting a lot of static when I call people, and the people on the other end have been getting a lot of static too. Is there any way I can eliminate the static on both ends?.

Go to this website and see how your internet connection quality looks.

That's the first place I'd check.

should I do this this on the computer that is directly connected to the router, or would it be ok to do this from a laptop that is wirelessly connected?

I would test with a pc connected directly, but I don't think it matters much.

All I had to do was power cycle the ooma hub and it stopped. That was kinda weird. Sorry for the late reply, I was busy studying for finals.

As long as you're using a hardline on the network it should be fine. An added note is not to run any of these kinds of tests via wireless. You'll definitely get mixed results.
