Backing Off : TCP connection to 173.194.193.125 failed . . . is BACK AGAIN
JLDP:
Thank you for the explanation.
I do not normally go and read these forums, I only came by from a Google link while searching for a fix to my problem.
Truth is I got spoiled by nice companies that at least try to notify their customers before they discontinue their service. I completely forgot that we're dealing with Google instead.
The second DNS fix didn't take so it is time to either pay Mr. Simon or buy an expensive new box to replace one that isn't broken. Thanks, Google! </sarcasm>
And thanks, Geoff, appreciate the input.

It is six dollars per Google account.
Why not just buy a new OBi 200 and be happy?
Hi Steve,
Brand New OBi 100 & 110 was SOLD online in major online retailers without EOL warning recently. I did see it with my own eyes about 6 months ago as I was comparing prices and purchased Obi 200 as it was on "sale" for my relative.
I have been using my OBi 110 for about 5 years or even more and I have purchased about 4 devices for my extended family and recommended OBi for a lot of friends and also in many forum posts as I strongly believed that OBi was the best device for GV.
Therefore IF OBi thinks that customer good will and word of mouth marketing is worth nothing for OBi then go ahead with EOL non support. EOL non support is a pure money grabbing strategy to sell new devices as the OBi 100/110 hardware is fully capable of handling Google Voice. Importantly there is very minimal improvement (IF ANY) in the OBi 200 series devices. Hence it's not like throwing away your iPhone 5 to buy an iPhone 8

For the love of gawd, why won't you just accept the posted answers? Your OBi 100 will not work any more with Google Voice. It may work today or tomorrow, but it will soon stop working entirely. There is no solution, other than to a) use the Simonics Google Voice Gateway via SIP, or to buy a new OBi 200 device.

Steve thanks for the Simonics gateway idea. My old Obi110 worked fine up till December 7, 2017. I already bought the Obi 200 a couple days ago so it has replaced the 110. I could give the 110 to my daughter.

When you get your OBi200, you can define 2 GV trunks on it, one for you and one for your daughter. She can then access the OBi200 from the OBi110 and make and receive calls, both of you could be on simultaneous calls. No need for the Simonics GVGW.
Here is the setup:
