Phone suddenly not ringing

On that GV setting page where Chat is ticked, click on the edit button immediately below the email address. Check that the Ring Schedule has appropriate values.
If still no sucess, need to determine which of these two is happening.
GV is not forwarding calls to your OBi.
or
GV is forwarding calls to your OBi, but something is amiss with your OBi/phone.
If you don't know the IP address of your OBi on your LAN, dial ***1 and it will be read out to you.
Point a browser at the OBi's IP address and log in. admin and admin are the default name and password. On the left hand side click on Status, then click on Call History. Do you see the missed calls from GV?
Also try dialling your GV number from another phone (eg a cellphone) while observing the PHONE LED on the OBi100. (That is the right most one.) Does it begin to flash?

Just today this happened to me. For some reason the person who was trying to call AND text me was marked as SPAM in my Google Voice page. Found it by luck and once marked as NOT spam all worked fine, even the missed texts and voicemail were now in my inbox. No idea if this is your problem, but cant hurt to check

Yes... these are set:
[X] Always ring on weekdays
[X] Always ring on weekends

I had just a friend call the phone, and then checked Call History on the OBi100. It lists the 2 incoming calls.

Yes. I could see the LEDs blinking as the 2 calls were coming in. Hmmm... I ran the ring test from the hand held cordless phone, and the phone rings from there. I wouldn't think it would be a problem with the connecting wires, as I'm able to call out okay.

Wow... I had no idea people could text my GV account from a mobile phone. Am not having that problem of anyone simultaneously calling & texting me though. But thanks for the suggestion bitstopjoe
EDIT: Got out the brand new Panasonic cordless phone Amazon sent that had a missing clip in the box. They sent me a replacement and let me keep it. So I just set it up, ran the same test, and found it doesn't ring with incoming GV calls either.

Beg, borrow or steal another phone. Does it ring?
