one ring, goes straight to message

<< < (2/2)

Redwood:
Thanks for trying... but, I have NO idea how/what you are talking about here...

I use a google phone #.
I use obi 202.
phone works, calls out fine.
calls IN, only rings, goes to voicemail.

"Contact the carrier supplying service for the linked number(s) and ask them how to turn on (enable) Conditional Call Forwarding, then turn it on by entering the appropriate command on your phone's own telephone dialer (NOT on the Google Voice app or OBi device).  For example, if you have a AT&T Wireless phone number, and your Google Voice number is 1234567890:

so, I don't have ATT, I have... obi, and google... thanks

Do you have any cellphones linked to your GV number?

Neither your OBi device nor any service run by or on behalf of Obihai/Poly has voicemail.  If you have determined that GV voicemail is not answering the calls then either:

1.  Your phone plugged in to your OBi has answerphone capability and it is enabled.

or

2.  You have other phone(s) linked to your GV number.

Remove power from you OBi and arrange a call to your GV number.  What happens?

Sorry I do not have an answer, but I have the exact same issue.
Started last year,thought it was a bad ISP, still happening with new (much better) ISP.

My setup is exactly the same as yours. The OBI works great going out, calls coming into my GV number ring once or even 1/2 a ring and go to GV voicemail. When this happens the home phone screen just says "incoming call" before it goes away - not the caller (can then to into Google Voice and see who called).
Normally I would get 3-4 rings, then GV will try my cell and THEN go to Google Voicemail.
Nothing forwarded, but I am using Google Groups/Labels.
Please let me know if you hear anything. There is a reply/test to my post which I will try tomorrow.

Thank you guys for helping me... Somehow, it all works again... I have NO idea what fixed it. I prolly changed Everything I could find... just out of Frustration... my Obi's have saved me aLot of money over a Long time... when it all works, its just.. wonderful...I have NO idea how all this stuff works together... its kinda "Magic-Obi"  When I have problems... I come Here... I really appriciate the experts helping us out. I know it can be frustrating when we don't/can't describe our situation properly... calling things do-hickies, etc... when you offer solutions, I"m sure there are Lots of users who are able to 'fix' their problems...  so, heres to Obi, and, hope no more glitches in the matrix for many many months ahead.

I just got my OBi200 yesterday.  I had the same issue.  Going into Google Voice settings, Under Security there is a Filter Spam toggle.  I disabled that option and calls started to ring through fine.
