The only way I'm able to make calls is through my cordless home phone's blue tooth-to-cell capabilities, which is really irrelevant.
In addition, when someone tries to call me, my phone rings, but when I pick it up, I get the dial tone and their call is not connected.
I've reset the Telo several times, but that hasn't helped.
There is a "bug" going on right now that is not the same, but is a little simular to the problem that you are having. By the end of next week, upgrades to the Ooma Servers are supposed to fix that problem.
Some other things to try:
Cycle the Do Not Disturb "Envelope button to change the color to yellow, then back to blue, and see if that helps.
Did you do the Ooma Telo factory reset? If not I'll post it for you.
Ooma Telo Factory Reset:
Dial *#*#099 on the phone attached to Telo to issue a factory reset.
A recording will come on the line and ask if you really want to do a factory reset. Press 1 for yes, and press 2 or hang up for no. After pressing 1, you will hear a busy signal. After hanging up, the number 1 light stays lit yellow on the face of the Ooma Telo. After a short period of time, only the number 1 & 2 lights remain lit blue. Then after more time, the Ooma Telo goes into the boot sequence, and comes back on line.
If you are using an Ooma Wi-Fi dongle, you have to access Ooma Setup and rescan for the Wi-Fi network before a Wi-Fi connection can be made. The same is true for DSL, if you have to enter Connection type PPoE and a Name and Password for the Internet provider connection. You will have to reset MAC address to Use Built In, reset your Quality of Service Upstream/Downstream Internet Speed settings, and Bluetooth settings if you are using Ooma’s USB Bluetooth dongle. You may have to re-register the Ooma Telo handsets, see procedure later in text.
Note: Sometimes the *#*#099 command has to be issued three or four times, before the factory reset sequence starts and is completed.
Something else to try:
Power off the Ooma device for 35 to 40 minutes. This allows time for the Ooma servers to reload/reset/correct your Ooma profile. Then repower the Ooma device and test. While the Ooma device is off-line, reboot your modem.
Information: The VPN timeout is 10 minutes. At this time the 'network outage' timeout is 32 minutes. These are the times that are required to pass before the Ooma servers recognize that that your Ooma device is offline.
