I am finally getting around to setting up the Original HUB unit to replace my existing COMCAST service. The Comcast service is active in all the Phone Jacks in the house. I go FROM the Comcast Router to a Wall Jack. I have previously used the exact same setup with other VOIP providers.

Now, when I go from the HUB HOME port to the same wall jack I get nothing on the phones connected to other wall jacks. A phone plugged into the HUB Unit works fine. Not sure why this does not work if it works for other VOIP providers - meaning the wiring in the house is probably fine. I am NOT using the wire that came with the Ooma...could that matter? I have tried two different phone cords...same response (no service).

I assume the Original HUB supports this type of configuration. I don't really want to hook my 4 Handset phone system directly to the HUB because it "lives" in the basement and I want to maximize the phone reception in the house. For what it is worth...I am wired MODEM > HUB > ROUTER.

Thanks.

Ooma's "phone" port connected to your house walljack.

That certainly makes sense...it now works fine. Thanks for taking the time to respond.

YW. Welcome to Ooma btw. In case you are wondering, the wall port is used to integrate landline into the Ooma device (have Ooma use landline # and service except for outgoing long distance calls). The newer devices don't even have this "wall" port anymore.
