I clicked on CallCentric as the provider in ObiTalk, and the screen I got doesn't have a field for username. Instead it asks for "Callcentric Number" which I did enter in the specified format. Should I be in a different screen??
On the Callcentric website, click the "Extensions" tab, and look at your extension. It should say that it is registered, in green. If it doesn't, then you didn't set up your Callcentric account correctly. What does it say?
See below.
EDIT: CORRECTION IT DOES INDEED SAY "YOUR PHONE IS NOT REGISTERED." I was thinking of something else when I initially replied.
SteveInWA:
So then, call the New York area code number from some other phone, and see if it rings on the OBi. You do know that the 1777xxxxxxx number is not a working telephone number, right? It is only used as your Callcentric SIP user ID, and for CC<-->CC on-net calling.
If a call to the real phone number doesn't work, then you have some basic mistake on your OBi configuration.
Delete the SP, and use the OBiTALK web portal to re-do it. Click the SP. On the next page, after accepting the warning about emergency calling, scroll down to the bottom and click "OBiTALK Compatible Service Providers". On the next page, click "Callcentric". Fill in the 1777xxxxxx number as the Callcentric number, and your Callcentric SIP password and submit.

SORRY, AS NOTED IN EDIT ABOVE, IT DOES INDEED SAY "NOT REGISTERED." Also, I *had* been trying to call the CallCentric number from my cellphone (not the phone attached to the Obi). I just now tried calling from the Obi-attached phone instead, and it just rang for a long time before cutting to a dial tone.

Then, you need to edit that extension in CC settings, and assign a SIP password to it, and follow my instructions to set it up on your OBi.

Thanks, I finally got it to work.
It's confusing to set up because when Obitalk asks for the "Callcentric Number," it sounds like they are asking for my Callcentric phone number rather than an extension id-- which is further compounded by the fact the 1777xxxxxxx looks like an eleven digit phone number.
