Quick Start Guide

Before you begin
The Ooma Wi Bluetooth Adapter
enables your Ooma Telo
®
or Ooma Office
Base Station to connect to the Internet
wirelessly using your Wi-Fi network. This
gives you the flexibility to install your device
anywhere in your home or office where you
have access to Wi-Fi.
When used with the Ooma Telo, the built-in
Bluetooth function also links your mobile
phone to your Telo to receive incoming calls
through your home telephones, giving you
an additional level of convenience.
Before you get started, make sure your
Ooma device is working with a hardwired
Ethernet connection. Then find a convenient
place to put your Ooma device. It should
be centrally located in your home or office
and have good Wi-Fi signal strength. Also,
to use the Bluetooth function, you’ll want
to place the Telo within Bluetooth range of
where you normally charge your cell phone.
Setting up the Wi Bluetooth Adapter
will take about 10 minutes. You’ll need:
•
A desktop or laptop computer with
an Ethernet port
•
An Ethernet cable
You will first set your device to connect to
your Wi-Fi network. Then, you will set up
Bluetooth and pair your Bluetooth devices.
Install the Adapter
Connect a computer
to your Ooma device
Configure wireless settings
Congratulations, you’ve
gone wireless!
Make sure the adapter is properly aligned
with the
USB
port on the back of your
Ooma device and plug it in. Press firmly to
ensure that the adapter is inserted all the
way in, but do not use excessive force.
Rotate it upward for optimal reception.
You may now disconnect the hardwired
Ethernet cable connecting your Ooma
device to your modem or router. You’re
free to move your Ooma device to a more
central location in your home or office!
Next time you power up, your Ooma device
will connect to the Internet wirelessly
through your Wi-Fi network. As before,
your Ooma device will be ready for use
when the Ooma logo turns blue. Pick up
the phone connected to your Ooma device
and listen for the musical Ooma dialtone
to confirm that you are ready to make and
receive calls.
If your Ooma device is not able to connect
wirelessly, see the Troubleshooting section
on the back for corrective actions you can
try. Keep in mind that plugging an Ethernet
cable into the
TO INTERNET
port will
override use of the Wireless Adapter.
Use your Ethernet cable to connect a
computer to the
HOME NETWORK
port
of your Ooma device.
On the computer you connected to your
Ooma device, open up a web browser and
navigate to
http://setup.ooma.com
. Click
on the Wireless tab on the left and follow
the directions on the screen to link your
Ooma device to your home Wi-Fi network.
Step 1
Step 2
Step 3
IMPORTANT:
If your Ooma device used to
be set up in between your modem and router
prior to installing the Wi Bluetooth
Adapter, be sure to reconnect your router to
your modem directly and then power cycle
both devices.
NOTE: You’ll need the name of your home
Wi-Fi network and the associated password.
Configure Your Bluetooth settings
The embedded Bluetooth function allows
you to link your cell phone to your home
telephone system through the Ooma Telo.
Now incoming calls on your cell phone
will ring on your cell phone AND home
phone and you can use any of your home
phones to answer the call. Prevent missed
calls, avoid dropped calls, and enjoy
the ergonomics of talking on your home
telepheone. You can pair up to seven
Bluetooth devices to your Telo.
Pairing a Mobile Phone
Step 1
Put the Telo into pairing mode
Put your Ooma Telo into pairing mode by
dialing
*
#
*
# 5 0 1
from any phone connected
to your Ooma Telo. You will hear three beeps
when the Telo goes into pairing mode.
Step 2
Add the Telo as a Bluetooth device
Next, open the Bluetooth settings menu on
your cell phone and go through the process
of adding a “Headset” or “Hands free” type
of device. Your mobile phone should find
your Ooma Telo. Select it and complete the
pairing process by entering a PIN of
0000
.
Pairing a Bluetooth headset
Step 1
Access the Bluetooth setup page
Use the computer that you connected to the
HOME NETWORK
port during the Wireless
setup process and navigate a web browser
to
http://setup.ooma.com
. Click on the
Bluetooth tab on the left.
Step 2
Put your headset in pairing mode
Follow the manufacturer’s instructions to put
your Bluetooth headset into pairing mode.
Step 3
Add the device
Click on the “Add New Device” button in
your browser. The Telo will scan for nearby
Bluetooth devices and display a list of
devices to choose from. Select your headset
from this list.
Step 4
Complete the pairing process
When you are prompted, enter the Bluetooth
headset PIN code. For most headsets, this
code will be 0000. Click “Yes” to add the
headset and complete the pairing process.
NOTE: You can also use this page to pair
a mobile phone.

on Ooma Office Base Station devices.
If you run into any issues when setting up
Wi-Fi access, try these corrective steps:

•
Try re-inserting the Wi Bluetooth
Adapter and rebooting your Ooma device
•
Move the Ooma device closer to your Wi-Fi
router or access point (to make sure it is
not out of range)
•
Repeat the directions in Step 3 to rescan
and reconfigure your wireless network
settings
•
If you are connecting to a Wi-Fi network
with a hidden SSID, it won’t show up in
the automatic scan. Click “Next” after
scanning for wireless networks and
manually configure your wireless settings
•
Verify that your Ooma device works with
a hardwired Ethernet connection to your
router
•
Reboot your Ooma device and Wi-Fi router
or access point
