Does Ooma Telo limit bandwidth to 100 Mbps?

Post by ziggy29 » Mon May 16, 2022 7:00 am

My internet was recently upgraded from 100 Mbps to 200 Mbps (supposedly). I needed a new modem, and when I installed it (cable to modem into Ooma Telo into wireless router, all chained), the speeds went up from about 75 Mbps to a very consistent 95 Mbps. There seems to be something creating a hard ceiling on my speeds.

So, question: Does putting the Ooma Telo inline between the modem and my wireless router cause a 100 Mbps cap on the speeds going into the wireless router? If so I may need to explore new options for configuration or a new VoIP solution.

Yes, the Telo ethernet ports limit bandwidth to 100 Mbps. For faster router speeds, connect modem to router, and router to Telo, (as described in step 2 of the Telo Quick Start Guide).

Don't use the Telo 'HOME' port for any devices requiring faster speeds.
