rollover lines
RonR:
Assuming:
Four OBi's with OBiTALK numbers of 200000001, 200000002, 200000003, and 200000004 respectively.
OBi #1 configured with a VoIP provider on SP1 capable of 4 simultaneous inbound/outbound sessions.
OBi #1 -> Line 1
================
Voice Services -> SP1 Service -> MaxSessions : 4
Voice Services -> SP1 Service -> CallForwardOnBusyEnable : (checked)
Voice Services -> SP1 Service -> CallForwardOnBusyNumber : PP(ob200000002)
Voice Services -> OBiTALK Service -> InboundCallRoute : {(200000002|200000003|200000004)>(Msp1):sp1},{ph}
Voice Services -> OBiTALK Service -> MaxSessions : 4
Physical Interfaces -> PHONE Port -> CallWaitingEnable : (unchecked)
OBi #2 -> Line 2
================
Voice Services -> OBiTALK Service -> MaxSessions : 4
Voice Services -> OBiTALK Service -> CallForwardOnBusyEnable : (checked)
Voice Services -> OBiRALK Service -> CallForwardOnBusyNumber : PP(ob200000003)
Physical Interfaces -> PHONE Port -> CallWaitingEnable : (unchecked)
Physical Interfaces -> PHONE Port -> DigitMap:
([1-9]x?*(Mpli)|[1-9]|[1-9][0-9]|911|**0|***|#|**1(Msp1)|**2(Msp2)|**8(Mli)|**9(Mpp)|<2*>(Mpli))
User Settings -> Speed Dials -> 2 : PP(ob200000001)
OBi #3 -> Line 3
================
Voice Services -> OBiTALK Service -> MaxSessions : 4
Voice Services -> OBiTALK Service -> CallForwardOnBusyEnable : (checked)
Voice Services -> OBiRALK Service -> CallForwardOnBusyNumber : PP(ob200000004)
Physical Interfaces -> PHONE Port -> CallWaitingEnable : (unchecked)
Physical Interfaces -> PHONE Port -> DigitMap:
([1-9]x?*(Mpli)|[1-9]|[1-9][0-9]|911|**0|***|#|**1(Msp1)|**2(Msp2)|**8(Mli)|**9(Mpp)|<2*>(Mpli))
User Settings -> Speed Dials -> 2 : PP(ob200000001)
OBi #4 -> Line 4
================
Voice Services -> OBiTALK Service -> MaxSessions : 4
Physical Interfaces -> PHONE Port -> CallWaitingEnable : (unchecked)
Physical Interfaces -> PHONE Port -> DigitMap:
([1-9]x?*(Mpli)|[1-9]|[1-9][0-9]|911|**0|***|#|**1(Msp1)|**2(Msp2)|**8(Mli)|**9(Mpp)|<2*>(Mpli))
User Settings -> Speed Dials -> 2 : PP(ob200000001)
Here is an abbreviated setup if you'd like to do a proof-of-concept test using two OBi's and a Google Voice account:
OBi #1 -> Line 1
================
Voice Services -> SP1 Service -> CallForwardOnBusyEnable : (checked)
Voice Services -> SP1 Service -> CallForwardOnBusyNumber : PP(ob200000002)
Voice Services -> OBiTALK Service -> InboundCallRoute : {200000002>(Msp1):sp1},{ph}
Physical Interfaces -> PHONE Port -> CallWaitingEnable : (unchecked)
OBi #2 -> Line 2
================
Physical Interfaces -> PHONE Port -> CallWaitingEnable : (unchecked)
Physical Interfaces -> PHONE Port -> DigitMap:
([1-9]x?*(Mpli)|[1-9]|[1-9][0-9]|911|**0|***|#|**1(Msp1)|**2(Msp2)|**8(Mli)|**9(Mpp)|<2*>(Mpli))
User Settings -> Speed Dials -> 2 : PP(ob200000001)

I imagine you are correct. I just put one of these obi's in my home and got all excited about "what else". It started a nice little run on the forum with a bunch of interesting info which I have enjoyed reading.
gobluelou:
After studying the posts, it would appear that GV would work for a two line "rollover" setup since it only supports 2 simultaneous channels.
Would a service such as this, http://www.didforsale.com/home.php which supports 20 channels per did (had to goolge that to figure out it means direct inward dialing number, previously known to me as "a phone number")?
So if you used RonR's detailed flow chart with the above servcie, could you link 4 obi's and have a 4 line phone system (I mean regular old 4 analog line phones) having each of the 4 lines getting calls rolled over to and also being able to place outgoing calls?

Great thread.
I am new to Obi, just ordered mine today.
I too, have 4 business lines to manage. I am not in a hurry to ditch my primary landline though. What do users think of keeping one landline, using call busy forwarding feature on that line to forward to a GV number, and in turn have Obi manage two additional lines? I'd be giving up one line if i read the posts here correctly but I could live with that.
TIA.

I have tried to set up 2 Obi devices in a rollover configuration detailed in previous posts. The rollover to the second device works other than when someone calls and device 1 is busy, I get the Auto Attendant asking me whether I want to continue with the call or gives me other options. I have unchecked the auto attendant option but it still seems to be routing to the auto attendant. Can anybody help?
