My television boxes are connected to the RG via coax and show up as HPNA devices. My computers and the telos are shown on the ethernet.
So let me see if I understand what you are saying. I use the Home port of the Telo serving as the main network router (the one in DMZPlus) as the input to my separate router and then plug the second Telo into this router along with all my other network connections. Leaving the Home port of the secondar Telo unused. Is that correct?fastlane01 wrote:I would make one Telo the main network router(the one in DMZPlus) and the other just a phone line.
Yes, mine works configured that way as well. However, the issue is going to be how well the second telo/hub will work when there is heavy internet traffic from your ethernet. As I understand it, the second one will not have the benefit of the QoS provided by the telo because the traffic generated by it will be parsed out by the Uverse router/gateway along with the other traffic with no QoS traffic control. As long as there isn't much internet traffic generated by the other devices (computers, etc.) you won't see the problem.Leeway wrote:... I had both the hub and the Telo plugged in for months. I simply plugged both of them into the U-Verse RG or into my Netgear switch and one automatically took the DMZ Plus. It worked fine. ...
Interesting. So, based on your numbers, it looks to me like you're saving about 250K bandwidth per phone call. How did you arrive at this value, is it a common assumption? This will be helpful in configuring my settings. Thanks.fastlane01 wrote:So, the wiring into the RG would be:
1. All HPNA tv boxes - the RG's QoS will allow TV to be transferred and your Internet uplink will still work well.
2. One Telo plugged into RG without DMZPLus - nothing else to do here.
3. One Telo plugged into RG as DMZPlus - and behind that Telo, all of your other devices, with QoS on Ooma Telo set to about 70% of your upload bandwidth - ensuring you always have enough room for 4 phone calls if desired.
