2-line phone
rpankoe:
Not sure I understand what the 2 line splitter would do? If I put 2 Obi devices into 2 ethernet ports, then I would have 2 phone ports basically between the two devices, each setup with only 1 account. That seems like that would work. what about the splitter? The 2-line phone has an input for Line 1 and another for Line 2, so that may work. I was also looking at the Cisco SPA2102 and using a SIP gateway service like sipsourcery. Maybe that would work too?
lhm.:
Yes an ATA (other than another Obi) and Sipsorcery would work for your fax setup. It does for me.

Good to know. Will I be able to use the SPA2102 and sipsorcery with 2 google accounts (thus 2 google voice numbers) with the free sipsorcery account? Do you know how I would set this up in the SPA2102?

Since your two-line telephone has separate jacks for Line 1 and Line 2, you don't need a splitter.
It's possible to use an external SIP device/service with the OBi, but SP1 and/or SP2 must be configured for SIP to do so. This precludes having two Google Voice accounts configured on the OBi.
You could put two Google Voice accounts on Sip Sorcery and use a two-line ATA, but Sip Sorcery is not a plug-and-play service. It usually requires getting involved in writing Ruby scripts, which can be somewhat difficult if you're not accustomed to programming languages.

I'm wondering.. It looks like I have to also get a SipGate account to make this work with another ATA link the Linksys. When I dial-out via the ATA, do I get charged Sipgate rate, or Google Voice rates? In this case, to get the 2nd line working, would it be best to just get another Obi100 device? I'd like to keep it all in 1 device with the SPA2102 (with 2 phone ports), but I can't seem to find specifics to set this unit up and use google voice for calling out from an analog phone plugged into it, as well as receive calls (to/from my 2 google voice numbers).
In addition to this, Sipgate no longer has any numbers available, so I'm not sure where to go from here..
