How do I set up OBi202 to forward calls

(1/3) > >>

artgriff:
Thank you for your help. Recently my internet was down for a few hours and I couldn't get any calls. So I am wondering if I can set the OBi202 to forward calls to my cell phone when this happens. I have Callcentric for incoming calls and RingTo for the out going calls. Do I set the Obi to do this or Callcentric? Callcentric says it can do this but gives no instructions for doing it.
Again, Thanks for your help.

When your internet connection is down your OBi202 might as well be dead. Clearly the only place that any forwarding to cellular can be done is at the ITSP you use for incoming calls.  

MurrayB:
Check your dashboard on callcentric. Look for something that may be called a failover. That is how it is handled on VOIP.ms when it can't communicate with the Obi it routes the call to a failover number. Your cell phone perhaps.

Good Luck!

Log on with your Callcentric account name and password to their web portal and go to Call Treatments.

https://my.callcentric.com/call_treatments.php

Set up a call treatment to forward to your cell phone when the SIP user agent (the OBi in this case) is offline (not registered with their SIP server).  See my screenshot, attached.  Click "Save" at the bottom of the page to save the call treatment, and turn it on (enable it).  If you have created other call treatments, click the "normalize priority" link, to sort the treatments in the proper order for processing.

Thank you for your suggestions. I have contacted Callcentric support to help me set up the failsafe number. Thanks again for your help.
