Just to be clear, the OBi200 does not have built-in WiFi. It has a USB port which allows you to add a OBiWiFi adapter which is sold separately.

Yes you are right it is another $10 for the USB stick. But still worth it if you want mobility and don't want the phone close to the router. And if you don't want to use the USB port for the wifi, you can use it for Bluetooth to receive cell calls on your regular phone at home. Obi100 doesn't give you those choices.PianoGuy wrote: ↑Just to be clear, the OBi200 does not have built-in WiFi. It has a USB port which allows you to add a OBiWiFi adapter which is sold separately.
If possible, you should connect your VoIP ATA to your network with a cable. VoIP is extremely sensitive to low quality bandwidth, and while WiFi can be made to work, the quality of the bandwidth must be near-pristine.

I somewhat agree. However the phone doesn't have to be close to the router, just the unit. Then via traditional phone lines you can make all the home phone line system active. So basement, thrird floor, etc.works.

It's not $10 difference because you need to buy the $20 wifi adapter for it too! Not to mention, this is adding unnecessary jitter to your VOIP line.bach2266 wrote: ↑The Obi100 does not have Wifi so you will have to connect it to your router and your phone will have to be in the same room as the router. If you add $10 you can get this one which is much better; this one has Wifi and you can connect it to your phone anywhere you want:

Definitely worth the $10 more because it gives you a lot of choices of where to put your phone. I have the Obi200. The setup takes a bit of time but it works. It is downstairs and my router is upstairs and it is strong enough to connect. If you have more money to spend you can buy the Obi202 which gives you the possibility to connect Bluetooth AND Wifi at the same time (that way you can receive your cell phone calls on the regular phone at home).
