Forward calls to GV with Caller ID intact.

Does anyone who if voipmyway forwards caller id?
I want to port my number to voipmyway and forward incoming calls to GV for call management and just use voipmyway for outgoing calls.
Can someone help with the setup of my OBI110? I would like calls coming in on my voipmyway number forwarded to GV and have GV ring the phone attached to the OBI. When I make a call from the phone connected to the OBI I want it to go out using my voipmyway account.
Thanks in advance for the help

I'm not familiar with VoiPMyWay, but I don't know of any VoIP providers that don't provide CallerID.

No special setup in the OBi should be needed. You would configure VoIPMyWay to forward all inoming calls to your Google Voice number. Your OBi would be configured normally with Google Voice on SP1, VoIPMyWay on SP2, and PrimaryLine set to SP2 Service so that outbound calling would default to using VoIPMyWay. If you wished to make an outbound call using Google Voice instead, you would simply preface the number with **1.

... No the call is forwarded as your number and not the original number since your number is answering the call and then sending it forward to the other service.
I need the Caller ID forwarded with the call. Looks like when I forward a call from Voipmyway the incoming caller id sent to GV is my voipmyway number, not the original caller. That pretty much makes GV useless to screen calls.

It isn't google's fault for the incoming caller id. Trying to find a work around because of the porting problem will likely be a problem itself.

Would this help? Have my provider setup on SP1 and have the Obi spoof the caller id and send it to GV? If that worked I could use GV to manage all my calls and voicemail.
