Experiences using WebRTC (Call OBi) as Alternative to OBiOn

The OP currently doesn't have PSTN service, so wasn't able to make a call. He was able to connect to the AA and enter an outbound number.
PBXes.com has a function (Sub-PBX) that doesn't require the OBi Auto Attendant. An account will cost a one-time $15 fee. This function worked for me.

@azrobert, I will re-install Zoiper and do more testing with OBi200 logging enabled. With the OnSIP Android client, I am connecting to the AA and it will accept the first key press (1, 2, or 3). Pressing 1 rings my locally attached phone, pressing 2 or 3 prompts me to enter a phone number, but the AA either does not recognize the dial tones or does not set up the new call. Everything works fine when I use the OnSIP WebRTC client. The log shows that the DTMF codes arrive but I have not figured out how to enable logging of the AA actions. The logs are quite verbose and not easy to read.
I am working with the MizuDroid developers to get their Android client working with OnSIP - it appears to support various DTMF schemes. Mizutech also has a Webphone package that may allow me to set up a local 'Call Obi' button where I can enter the destination number and have the Webphone automate calling my OBi200.
Thanks, Norbert

@azrobert, I recall looking into PBXes.com some years ago and getting thoroughly confused, although I can check it out again.
You got me thinking about what kind of features Anveo has as part of its Call Flow Builder. It turns out that calling my Anveo phone number and entering in a magic incantation allows me to start a new call. Unfortunately, calling my Anveo SIP address immediately rings through to the phone attached to my OBi200 instead of following the Anveo call flow. Maybe it is as simple as routing my SP3 voice service for incoming OnSIP calls to my SP2 service associated with Anveo.
I need a 'Dummies for Internet Telephony' (:-). Actually, there is one published in 1997 and out of print.
Thanks, Norbert

@azrobert, success! I finally got MizuDroid to authenticate with OnSIP (the setup is not obvious), was able to connect to my OBi200, and MizuDroid sent the keypad DTMF tones in a language that the Auto Attendant understood. MizuDroid has five different DTMF options, but 'Auto' worked for me.
I am trying to get up to speed on SIP and the OBi200 and will test out some other options when I get a chance. What would be great is an app that does what 'Call OBi' used to do - accept the destination phone number and do the connection to the OBi200 under the covers.
Thanks, Norbert
