Phone connected to Ooma fails to ring

Post by cld62034 » Tue Jan 11, 2011 6:15 am

Phone connected to Ooma fails to ring but it does have a dial tone. Phones connected to existing phone line ring.
How do I get phone connected to Ooma to ring? Did I change a default setting that caused this?
Thanks.

Sounds like you have decided to use your existing phone number until it is ported. That means that you need to have a phone cord between a working phone jack and the WALL connection on your ooma. All incoming calls will use that connection.

Friends don't remember what Landline Integration was or why we did it.
