Re: ooma questions
I apologize.
A reason to put the Ooma hub behind the router is to keep it proximal to the area it will be used in. My router and cable modem are in a closet remote from where I want my Ooma to be.
Placing the Ooma behind my router, permits me the ability to have it physically where I want it.
Additionally, I don't have to worry about Ooma being in the way of, or managing any of my LAN -> WAN traffic. Instead of sitting in the middle of everything going to and from internet, my Ooma hubs sit on the inside of my LAN only generating traffic they need to manage VOIP calls.
