Use of more than 4 Voice Gateways in OBi110
RonR:
There's no charge for iNum calling unless your VoIP provider charges you for the call. You can always use sip.inum.net and there's no provider invovled.

Thanks RonR,
Getting back to the trunk specifier, what would be your choice for some simple 2 or 3 digit numbers that shouldn't mess with other stuff?
Would 00 be ok to use for the iNum gateway?
...or could I use a single * and a single number such as *1, *2, ...*9 or even *00 ?
RonR:
Personally, I don't like the idea of using simple digits as it's likely to get messy with normal dialing.
You could use # as a lead-in, such as #1, #2, etc. I was using #1 for Skype for a while, but I have an extension phone tied to the OBi using a PAP2 and the leading # was a little messy with it, so I went to the **71/**72 approach to free up **6 for Skype.
*xx is potentially problematic as these are Star Code Features. It might be OK to use ones don't conflict with ones already in use. *x might not be problem. You'd have to experiment to see.

I used #2 for the iNum on vg2 and it works. I called my iNum number. I got the call waiting tone, but of course, I had a hard time talking to myself with the same phone. I ususlly don't need a phone to talk to myself.
N7AS:
I actually had to change it to *2 as #2 was conflicting with my PAP2T. (the # brought up the line port) Also, using #2 somehow sent the call out as speed dial 2 on SP2. I was wondering why my localphone (SP2) call history showed that number which is also an inbound number (GV number forwarded) on the PAP2T through an IPComms DID. And they nicked me 1/2 cent to find out.
