For me setting the DNS to 1.1.1.1 and flushing the DNS cache worked only intermittently - the proxy IP address kept going bad.
I fixed it on my 1022 phone by going to the local (built in to the phone) web interface (in my case typing 192.168.1.16 into my browser address field), then:
1. On the menu on the left select System Management, then WAN Settings
2. Scroll down to Local DNS Records
3. Uncheck the Default box on record 1
4. Put:
obihai.telephony.goog=216.239.36.144
5. Select Submit at the bottom of the page
6. Select Reboot at the top of the page
Thanks Chronoblast, this fixed my Obi202 that wouldn't work using 1.1.1.1 or others. I logged into the webpage for the Obi and set the local DNS entry there, rebooted and all was fixed. I'll just have to remove the entry when the issue is resolved.

@SteveInWA - I totally agree. It is foolish and reckless. Only do it if you want your phone to work.
Then set a reminder to erase this entry after a few days.

This worked for me as well on my Obi200. Just went to expert settings and followed the directions below:
1. On the menu on the left select System Management, then WAN Settings
2. Scroll down to Local DNS Records
3. Uncheck the Default box on record 1
4. Put:
obihai.telephony.goog=216.239.36.144
5. Select Submit at the bottom of the page
thanks for the tip; unfortunately for me, i cannot make any changes to the DNS settings.

Thanks to whoever posted it’s a DNS issue. I’ve google mesh router and it’s default DNS is 8.8.8.8 and I was getting the connect failed error.
But the moment I switched the router to use Spectrum’s DNS, both my google voice accounts connected immediately.

Same here. My AT&T U-Verse/Pace unit doesn't allow manual DNS settings.
