On amazon the ooma with no wireless + the wireless adapter add up to less $ than this unit. Is there a reason to buy this one?

It's all pending on what you want to do. If your going to do Premier Ooma if you sign up for a year of service you get an adapter for free (Bluetooth or wireless). If your going for Basic service then I would recommended getting the ooma with wireless adapter bundle. Yes when I bought mine too it was less than the individual ones too.

I did not get any special incentives when I bought mine. The bundled price at the time was less than the individual ones.

The wireless adapter is for your internet connection, so you don't have to place your Ooma next to your router or modem.Ooma sells a Linx extension device. If you have splitter for your phone line you can certainly connect more than one telephone, wired or wireless to the basic Ooma or Ooma with wireless adapter. They connect the same as they would to a conventional land line, however, as far as I know, they will be one line.

I prefer Ooma because it is more reliable and has better call quality. Ooma was rated number one for home phone service the past three years by a leading consumer magazine. That same magazine rated Magic Jack as worse than Ooma. If you want to buy a new Ooma Telo for just $99.99 then copy this link:www.ooma.com/refer-a-friend/?referral_code=NEK9052

I sure don't know. I bought 1 and found there was very little customer support. Bought an OOma and it is great

You should be able to connect wirelessly; however unlike a Roku or an Extender, there are no instructions for doing this online without an Ooma Ethernet connection to the computer. The instructions call for connecting a computer to the Ooma with an included Ethernet cable, then browsing to setup.ooma.com. You may be able to do this; however, my laptop could support this process, and immediately when the Ethernet was plugged in, it overrode my router, and I lost my wireless browsing ability.

I have SimpliSafe for our security. Don't need a land line or an internet connection to have the security system operate as it uses a dedicated cell line for any emergency. The Ooma works excellent as a phone carrier - just need the internet for that phone service. ATT or any local carrier isn't really needed.

The OEM Sierra Wireless W-1 which I purchased was through FreedomPop, and was a refurbished unit. It came with a limited warranty only. Whichever source you purchased a Unit from should be able to answer your Question. If you have not purchased a unit, Check with the Carrier you plan to use, or Sierra if you plan to purchase it through them.

This printer requires optional External Wireless Adaptor. I bought it for $50. I just saw where it now costs $69. The adaptor is in addition to the printer. Great wireless printer if you buy the adaptor.

This is true, and I tried using MJ this way for a couple of months, but still no comparison to Ooma in my opinion. The main problem I had with MJ, besides having to dedicate a PC to use my phone, was the lack of message waiting indicator via MWI LED on my cordless handsets. Ooma provides this if you have newer model phones with built in MWI LEDs.

You may someday get wifi, always good to have. I don't think you will find a printer as good as this without wifi for the price.

Check the manual, you can download it in PDF format online for free, without registration; it lists all the compatible wireless adapters. Then you can find an used one for a low price on eBay.

No it is an older technology. The M570 being wireless is much newer. I am not sure why this has gone up so much in price unless they no longer make it and there is a huge demand. I would tihnk typo as well but multiple sellers all have it for way to much.

Berry:I tried both wireless and hardwired (Ethernet cable). With hardwire, it works well. Wireless: not reliable. I had to have another one sent since the voice dropped off so bad and the wireless signal reception was poor even in front of the wireless router! The second one was slightly better, but the voice quality was very poor or could not connect. I discussed it with OOMA, but I would have to return to Amazon to get the refund. By that time I could not return it. So, I am stuck with it. It really amazes me that they sell such a poor quality product.In summary: it is bad idea to use this wireless.

Agreed. I paid $25 for this and it was a great buy at that price. It uses ordinary 3.5mm plugs, no wireless, bluetooth, etc. Low tech and WORKS. There is no reason this should be $60.

My OOMA connection sounds great. In fact it sounds better then my AT&T; land line did by quite a bit! I got a Magic Jack a couple years ago and I've yet to ever plug it into my PC and Install the software. Now I don't need it and I'm quite glad I went with OOMA after all the Negatives I hear about the MJ.
