Quick Start Guide

The Ooma Telo Wireless Adapter enables your Ooma Telo

®

 

to connect to the Internet wirelessly over your Wi-Fi network. 

This means you’ll have the flexibility to install your Telo 

anywhere in your home where you have access to Wi-Fi.
Take a moment to think about a convenient place to put your 

Ooma Telo and home phone. It should be centrally located 

since you will use the Telo to check voicemail and access 

enhanced features like Call Screening and Do Not Disturb.
Setting up the Wireless Adapter will take about 10 minutes. 

You’ll need access to:
•  A desktop or laptop computer with an Ethernet port
•  An Ethernet cable

Make sure the adapter is properly aligned with the 

 

port on the back of your Ooma Telo and plug it in. Press 

firmly to ensure the adapter is inserted all the way in,  

but do not use excessive force. Rotate it upward for 

optimal reception. 

Use your Ethernet cable to connect a computer to the 

 port of the Ooma Telo.

On the computer you connected to the Telo, open up a 

Web browser and navigate to:

Click on the Wireless tab and follow the directions on the 

screen to link the Telo to your home Wi-Fi network. 
Note: You’ll need to know the name and password for 

your home wireless network.

You may now disconnect the hardwired Ethernet cable 

connecting your Ooma Telo to your modem or router. 

You’re free to move your Telo to a more central location  

in your home!
Next time you power up the Ooma Telo, it will connect to 

the Internet wirelessly through your home Wi-Fi network. 

As before, the Telo will be ready for use when the Ooma 

logo stops flashing red and all the buttons turn blue. Pick 

up the phone connected to your Telo and listen for the 

musical Ooma dialtone to confirm that you are ready to 

make and receive calls.
If your Ooma Telo is not able to connect wirelessly, see the 

Troubleshooting section on the back for corrective actions 

you can try. Keep in mind that a hardwired Ethernet cable 

(plugged into the 

 port) will override use of 

the Wireless Adapter.

  If your Ooma Telo was set up in 

between your modem and router prior to installing 

the Wireless Adapter, be sure to reconnect the WAN 

(or Internet) port of the router to your modem and 

then power cycle both devices.

  Before you begin, verify that your 

Ooma Telo is fully functional. If your Telo has not 

been installed yet, we recommend that you follow the 

bundled instructions to first set it up with a hardwired 

Ethernet connection. This will ensure that your Telo is 

operational and has downloaded the latest software 

to support the Wireless Adapter.
