Landline Call Forwarding

<< < (4/4)

Hello y'all,

New to the VoIP and to this forum, so I am very retarded if y'all don't mind me asking a few questions?
Well, first off, everyone here seems so technically advanced and doing acrobatic stuff with VoIP. Hats off to all.

My beef:

1. According to a "work-around landline number portability": get T-Mobile (or any wireless provider?) prepaid card, then port landline number to prepaid number, then port prepaid number to GV. Right? With lots of people being successful?

2. What happens to the prepaid number (we have to keep it active monthly)?

3. What happens to the landline number (we cancel the landline after all is well)?

4. Will the database that keeps track of "number porting" be functioning after both prepaid and landline services are disconnected?

My intention:

1. Purchase OBi110 or OBi100. Set up GV (which I already have an account, not educated enough to really dig into it).
2. Port Verizon landline number to GV.
3. Cancel my Verizon landline (which costs $30/month, but must keep for family reason)
4. Family from oversea can still call the old landline number to reach us (transparent to caller)

Any idea/answer/scolding is well appreciated

Thanks for putting up with my yelping.
