Question about OBiTalk and Google Voice

You appear to be making configuration changes using the 202's onboard web server. Unless you have disabled Obitalk Provisioning the changes will sooner or later (in the case of rebooting, immediately) by the settings on the portal.
When I first got the OBi202 I made screen shots of every page of the device setups. At that time I noticed that the Provisioning was set to either 'Disabled' or 'Periodically' with no enable tick mark. And it is now set to Periodically & disabled after the factory reset.
Seems to me that it ought to be enabled but then making any changes is futile in the long run. I would guess that a re-provisioning is similar to a firmware update and wouldn't happen too often. If it was only once a year I could just put the new dial plan back in afterwards. i.e. Once I/we find one that works.
I haven't changed anything other than trying azrobot's dial plan for 10 digits to the A Profile hoping it would speed up the start of dialing. Before I made his change I was hearing dialing rings.
The OBiTalk test call 222 etc answers immediately when dialed and works OK.
I recommend you use Expert mode on the portal to make all changes. Note that you need to clear both tick boxes at the right hand side of a line before it will become editable.
OK, I'll certainly do that.
I also notice that the ITSP Profile A > General > DigitMap does not have the enable box tick mark after the reset. All the other Profiles do have the tick mark. azrobot said to modify the A profile which I did and ticked the enable box to make it active. After I did that all the Profiles had the new dial setting and were enabled.
Should I just set the A Profile to not enabled and when I put the new dial plan in Profile A? I realize that it gets propagated to all the others from the A Profile.
Is it proper to disconnect only the 12v power for 15-20 seconds to cause the 202 to reboot?
I haven't looked up the star code for that yet. I had the impression you could reset and clear only some things. Not knowing what those things do I decided to just pull the power plug.
Thanks again for everyone's help, it is certainly appreciated.
I haven't had the time to search a lot on the forum to see if there is a sticky with some of my questions already answered. I'll do that later today. I'm still getting used to how this forum works for posting etc. It's quite different from several of the others I'm on (giving advice, not taking up people's time with questions that have probably been answered over and over again).

When you:
change settings using the onboard web server you click submit at the bottom of the page. There will then be a "Reboot" button in the top right corner. Haven't you noticed that?
change settings using the portal you click submit and your OBi will reboot automatically shortly thereafter.

Yes I did that. Otherwise nothing was going to happen.
But not knowing the sequence of the 202 LED flashing while rebooting I didn't know what or when it actually finished re-booting. So after about 7 minutes I unplugged it to make sure. And the change was made.
Next time I'll go do something else for awhile while it does the magic. ;D
drgeoff:
The reboot itself completes in well under a minute. It starts immediately (unless a call is in progress) when you click the reboot button on the onboard GUI. Takes a variable bit longer to start the reboot when using the portal.
No need to power cycle in either case.

The last rule in the Phone DigitMap is (Mpli). This will include the primary line's DigitMap rules. The changes need to be made in the primary lines digit map. Assuming your primary line is SP1:
Service Providers -> ITSP Profile A General -> DigitMap
(1xxxxxxxxxx|<1>[2-9]xxxxxxxxx|011xx.S3)
I only inputted the above plan in the ITSP Profile A area. Do I also have to make the dial plan change in the "Physical Interfaces/PHONE1 Port"? Or does it get changed to match the Profile A change? I didn't check that when I made the first attempt to shorten the dial ringing.
I think my OBi202 is possessed.
I'm sure that last night I didn't hear any dial rings after the reset when I called a local inactive phone number. When I just tried it again I did hear ringing! The AT&T voice message "person" answered the phone after a few rings.
Then I placed a call to a live phone, the person I called obviously heard ringing (which I didn't hear) and picked up the phone sooner than the inactive phone number.
Perhaps the 202 is starting the call but ringing doesn't start in my phone for awhile after the dialing has started. I don't call with extensions added to the phone number or 4 or 7 digit numbers etc etc.
I just need a shorter 10 digit 'S' time somewhere in the 202 to start the ringing and stop checking everywhere else.
