Obi202 won't ring on incoming calls to GV numbers
erkme73:
Huge egg on my face for wife's phone not ringing. I just told her "I cannot figure out whey your obi line won't ring when I call it from my number, but mine rings when I call it from yours."
She replied, "it hasn't been ringing for my line at home for quite some time either..."
Doh... I didn't notice, and since she never said anything I just assumed people were calling her cell directly. Knowing that neither the vacation home or main home obi202s ring for her, I logged into her GV legacy again and checked the phones...
Sure enough, her Google Chat checkbox was UNchecked... Go figure. She never goes into those settings, and I certainly wouldn't have unchecked that intentionally.
Anyway, I checked it, and immediately her line starts ringing.
Thanks for your help Steve...

Heh heh heh! While I was reading your reply just above this one (the 50% success), I said to myself,
"he doesn't have Chat check-marked."
I'm glad we got this sorted out. Enjoy your cabin-time, and here's your virtual dope-slap!

Hi Steve. I am having the problem on the phones attached to the Obi202 only ringing sometimes. I have also been getting the "number you dialed has not received a response from the service provider" on the phone as well when dialing out. I have tried to follow your instructions but I cannot find a "chat" box to check. Any other assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Google Chat is dead and gone. There is no longer a "chat" box to tick. However under Legacy Google Voice, Settings, Phones you should see "Obitalk device" and the 9 digit number on the bottom of your 202.

I do not see a reference to Obitalk.
