Please DO NOT factory reset the device. To be done ONLY if instructed to by our support staff during troubleshooting.
If the device is factory reset, it may erase the information required and could inadvertently disrupt your service.If for any reason this is done, and unable to self-setup you should contact support to assist in having the device configured.
The main difference between the two frequencies is the range (distance) and bandwidth (speed) that the frequency bands provide.
Distance is less in the 5 GHz band because higher frequencies cannot penetrate solid objects well, such as walls and floors. Due to its higher frequency it allows data to be transmitted at a higher rate than the lower 2.4 GHz frequencies allowing for faster data transfer.
Wireless connections on a specific frequency band may also be faster or slower because of interference from other devices, numerous wireless-enabled hardware and other household devices may use the 2.4 GHz band some examples include microwaves and/or garage door openers. When multiple devices attempt to use the same frequency space, overcrowding and crosstalk may occur, this causes slower speeds and loss in signal strength.
The 5 GHz band is favorable to have less overcrowding as it is less commonly used in wireless devices and having 23 channels available for devices to use lessens the interference, whereas the 2.4 GHz band has only 11 channels available.
If you are experiencing a lot of interference from other devices, consider using the 5 GHz band, if you find the 5 GHz lacks signal strength where attempting to connect, try using the 2.4 GHz network to boost the range.
Q: How do I access Webmail?
A: Using our homepage (www.ody.ca), click 'Webmail'. Type in the username (without @ody.ca) and email password, then click 'Login'.
Q: Where did all my emails go?
A: If your email program retrieves the emails from our server they are no longer stored on the server and can not be viewed in Webmail
Q: I want to check my mail while I'm on vacation, how do I do that?
A: Make sure when leaving for vacation to close ALL email programs that access the server. Using Webmail you will be able to read any new mail that arrives while you are away.
This information is to setup an auto-response message and optionally forward your incoming email to other addresses.
Due to the amount of options available to manage emails across different devices, we have simplified our mail support. To find out how to add/modify mail accounts for your specific platform, please refer to the software developers website ie Microsoft, Samsung, Apple, etc.
All mail accounts are required to be setup as POP3 with the option to 'Leave mail on server' to be set not greater than 3 days (72 hours), if this is your only device with mail, you may disable this feature.
You will require the Odynet username and password to complete this process, if you do not have this information please contact us to retrieve it.
Some mail applications will ask for all the information on one page, others may ask for it in steps, please follow the software's directions to ensure it is filled correctly to avoid any issues
You will require your Odynet username and password to complete this process, if you do not have this information please contact us to retrieve it.
Incoming settings remain the same as it already authenticates to check the inbox, you will only need to modify your outgoing or SMTP server settings, if setting up the account for the first time on the device, but will be using it 'off-network' please use these settings also.
Follow this procedure to properly setup the GrandStream HT701 VoIP ATA for use with Odynet.
Star codes can be used to access features with the VoIP service directly from the handset.
Dial one of the following codes to get access to the listed feature:
Please select the modem on the left for support options for that type of device
This will provide you with the basic steps through settings required to configure the modem to connect with Odynet.
If using a 3rd party router, consult your router's user manual for assistance in finding the equivalent settings.
For best results, if possible connect a device with an Internet browser directly to the modem via Ethernet cable.
The device will reboot, allow 30-120 seconds for it to initialize, the device should connect once it completes.
From time to time you may need to change your wireless password or the network name it broadcasts
This will provide the basic steps through settings to configure the wireless network details
For best results, if possible connect a device with an Internet browser directly to the modem via Ethernet cable.
Your device's operating system will vary on how specifically to scan for the new wireless network.
To re-connect the device, scan for wireless networks, choose the network, the device may request the password if changed, enter the new password to connect.
From time to time you may need to change your wireless channel to help alleviate wireless interference/signal issues.
This will provide the basic steps through settings to view and change the wireless broadcast frequency.
For best results, if possible connect a device with an Internet browser directly to the modem via Ethernet cable.
Under 'Access Point Settings' you will see a line that contains the channel country, setting and currently set channel.
If currently using Ethernet to configure, disconnect it and allow the device to re-connect to the wireless.
As an example; if currently set to channel 11, try setting to channel 1.
If the wireless issues persist, repeat the steps above to attempt to find a clear channel.
Most devices will re-connect, if it does not re-join the network, re-select the connection on the device to reconnect.
