Yes, you need a PC (or a tablet, laptop, smartphone, etc...) to pick a phone number and activate the device. Once it's up and running, you technically no longer need the PC just to use Ooma as a phone service. *BUT* it's easier to monitor your voice mail, missed calls, etc... via a PC. Also if you want to change any settings you'll need a PC for that as well.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Computer is probably easiest to use to setup as you will need to input some info, although a tablet or smart phone could be used. After setting up the account options and picking your phone number, you do not need a computer to actually use the phone since it hooks up straight to the network.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The OOMA Telo that I purchased requires a open port for plugin on the back of router as it does not connect wirelessly. You will need a pc, laptop, tablet, or cell phone to access the web to setup an account. The OOMA device will need to remain connected at all times to the internet source for service.
