HELLO & WELCOME

Anyone else unable to log into their OBi device using Microsoft Edge?

I get the popup asking me to enter my username and password but when I submit the correct credentials all I get is the pop again asking me for my username and password? After three attempts to login I get the dreaded 401 Unauthorized! page.

I can log in to my Snom 870 which uses the same popup windows using using Microsoft Edge, again I can log in to my Yealink T48G although this uses the phone's built in GUI to display the username and password fields...

Looks like the OBi web based GUI is not fully accessible on both Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge browsers.

The problem appears to be present on all OBi devices. I took a factory reset OBi110 and hooked it up to my network and again I am unable to login to the device using the devices default username and password of admin/admin.

Isn't this just another manifestation of the issue with Chrome in that all the Obi's use iframes in JavaScript and the new browsers have implemented security measures to stop phishing attacks via iframe vulnerabilities.

Firefox is still usable but it will need a Obi update of their web interface to fix the issue. TheJavaScript iframe has always been a security risk and should never be used.

Maybe, looks like chrome has a fix in place: Issue 512827: xsl fails to load properly in iframe

We just have to wait for the stable release to be updated.

Chrome has released (44.0.2403.155) a new update and once again we can configure our Obihai devices.

Still unable to login to any OBihai devices using Microsofts Edge browser! Hopefully this will be fixed in an upcoming release.
