Hello,
Switched to GV on OBi110 about 4 months ago, configured with the GV wizard on ObiTalk and mostly it has worked well... but it has had a recurring problem that I can't seem to fix.
About half the time, incoming calls that we try to answer on the phone connected to the Obi110, can't be answered, that is, they ring until they go to GV voice mail even if we pick up the receiver and say 'hello' (and we hear nothing but silence). Occasionally, we do hear the incoming party but they can't hear us.
Read posts here with similar problems, so on our router (Linksys WRT54GL, with latest stock firmware) I forwarded ports 16600-16998 and 5060-5061.
Unfortunately, that seemed to introduce an additional problem, outgoing calls are now dropping, usually after 5 min or so, but sometimes sooner.
Since the port forwarding didn't seem to have any effect other than possibly causing outgoing calls to drop, I've turned off the port forwarding for now.
I suspect knowledgeable folks will say 'ahh, that's usually a router problem', and it might be, but same router worked fine with PAP2 and before that Sipura 1001 ATAs with Broadvoice.
Anyone have any possible solutions?
Thanks for any tips or advice.
