“so the Ooma device plugs into the router and the phone base plugs in to the Ooma... which means my phone needs to be by the router, correct? Right now the router and phone are in different rooms. Would I have to move my phone base to the computer room??”

Yes. Although, if you have phone lines in the house from an old land line which is no longer connected, you could connect the Ooma to that jack. This is what we did to replace our VOIP phone service from ATT.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The easiest solution would be to use a cordless phone that comes with two or three handsets. Then you can put your Ooma wherever your router is located and have a phone anywhere you'd like.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.In my house the router/modem is in our laundry room and I have a split from there to phone jack in our bedroom. I am able to place the Ooma by the modem/router and take the dedicated CAT line for my phone into the Ooma. If you don't have that type of configuration, then I would assume the you would have to move your primary phone base next to your modem/router and have the other handsets in other rooms. Hope this helps.
