OBi212 Does not work with Google Voice
DevDave:
This is the same tutorial that I have been using. Thank you for creating it. Its very clear and concise. I do understand that the hardware is similar to the 202 but I'm guessing you could take identical hardware, change the model number, and it would break the install scrips on your servers.
I've tried two different working google voice accounts. This is the step that fails:

Add GV as a service provider. When you go through the procedure, it will use OAUTH 2.0 to authenticate to your GV account. This will pop up a window, from your Google account, and it will ask you to approve giving OBiTALK permission for offline access to your account. Verify that the Google account shown in the pop-up window is the correct account you want to use with your OBi. After you approve, the OBiTALK provisioning system will go through the authentication process with Google, and it will automatically download the necessary firmware to your device, if it's not already installed. You will see a spinner icon next to "Configuring" while this is happening. If the spinner icon doesn't go away after about 5 minutes, refresh the web browser page, and the status should change to "Connected". You can't make this work properly without using the portal.
Sticks on "Configuring" then after a while it says "offline".
Thanks for the responses. Its really nice to get a same-day reply on a message board.

The only reason I suspect the product is that the OBI212 seems to be so uncommonly used compared to the OBi202 and other products that perhaps it's firmware bugs are overlooked.
Please post what your current firmware version is.

HardwareVersion 1.4

Sure, my pleasure. The reason I am highly confident that it should work is:
It says so on the Amazon listing, which was written by Obihai.I know the folks in charge at Obihai, and they confirmed to me that it supports GV.The OBi devices use a modular architecture, with an ARM processor on a SOC, which communicates high-level commands to peripherals, including RAM, flash, the I/O ports, and the SLIC. The routines that authenticate with and control Google Voice are unaware of the difference in hardware, as they aren't concerned with controlling the line port.The only thing that would be different in the firmware would be the module supporting the FXO (line) port on the SLIC.From Google's end, they don't care what sort of hardware you're using. All they care is that you, the user, give OBiTALK permission to access the XMPP/Chat service on your Google account. At that point, Google and OBiTALK complete the OAUTH token exchange procedure.
I can offer you a fast way to eliminate your Google account as a possible cause of the problem. If you wish, I can private message you with login credentials for one of my Google test accounts, which does work with GV. Just let me know.

Can't find a direct URL (yet) for that firmware version.
My guess is the firmware for the 20x line of ATAs won't work on the OBi212.
How are you connecting your 212? Directly to your modem or your router? Do you have bridge mode enabled or do you have a double NAT configuration by any chance?

I have my 212 connected to a secondary router that is in bridge mode. I will try connecting directly to the modem.
