rollover lines

I couldn't find any info on this searching the forum.

Is there a way to do rollover lines with the obi110?  In other words, if you have 4 POTS lines connected to a multiline phone, and you wanted to port those 4 lines to 4 obi110 units (google voice?), can you make it so that if someone calls your main phone number, it bumps to your next number, and then your next number, and then your next number (or in other words, bumps to your next obi, then the next, then the next).

Or perhaps there is a different way to deal with entirely.

QBZappy:
You can use the CallForwardOn Busy/NoAnswer feature of the OBi on each unit. You might even think of forking the call over the OBi's for simultaneous ringing if this call strategy works for you.

gobluelou:
Thanks,

OK, so I don't think I would have it forward a busy over to all three of the other lines because that would be ugly to just see all those lights go off at once.

But, a forward on busy to the next obi in the series is a no brainer.

Next question, if you do a forward on busy, and then the next line is also busy, can that obi forward to the next?  In other words, can it forward a forward?

QBZappy:
gobluelou,

Good one, never been asked before I think.

I can not test it here, however if the call is passed to OBi#2 the CallForwardOn Busy/NoAnswer feature of the OBi should cycle through to the next OBi in series until it is picked up or goes to GV VM on the last OBi.

It would be a simple test for someone with several OBis.

gobluelou:
Cool, thanks.

So, the $100 question is do I buy two more units to test it out!
