call blocking
artgriff:
Thank you for your help. I am wondering if there is a way to setup call blocking using the Obi202. I have phone power as my SP 1, but do not get the option to block a call. I thought about the ObiExtras but that is too much to pay just to block calls. The other ObiExtras are not of any use to me. So I want to setup call blocking with the call just being disconnected or telling the person I don't want their calls and don't bother me again ;D .
Thanks again for your help.

Unless things have changed, you can block calls on PhonePower from your call history page.

Thank you to everyone who wrote to help me. I did find the problem with Phone Power, I was using their new ICM (incoming call manager) which doesn't give the option to block calls on the call log/history. When I switched back to the old call manager the block button reappeared. This is the way I remember it from Phone Power ( I was with them before I purchased my Obi202). I was thinking that using the Obi202 w/Phone Power that maybe I couldn't block calls. Hopefully, you will be able to pass this information on to anyone else who might run across this problem.
Thanks again for your help with this issue.

Thank you for the article. It is very useful. I've configured it and it does its job, i.e. my phone doesn't ring. But the issue is I forward all unanswered calls after 3-4 rings to my cellphone and I don't want to get a telemarketers call on my cell either. Is there way to silently drop the call that matches certain number(s)/pattern ? or is there anything else that people are doing to prevent those calls to get thru? I'm using FreePhoneLine VOIP service in Canada. Thanks.
