OBi100
akore:
One other quick question, do I need an actual analog phone attached to the OBi100 to set it up? I don't have one of those laying around here.

The intended use of an Analogue Telephone Adaptor (of which the OBi100 is a fine example) is to use an analogue phone with SIP telephony services. How are you intending to use your OBi100 without an analogue phone?
You do need an analogue phone to add the OBi to a dashboard at obitalk.com. But even without adding to the dashboard you can do all configuration using a browser pointed to your OBi's IP address.

With my MagicJack I never have a phone connected and just use the Magic App to place and receive calls from my Essential PH-1. I will from time to time connect a phone cable to the MagicJack and connect my Fax Printer to Fax a signed Doc. Not sure if Anveo has such an app to use on my PH-1.

I don't know what an Essential PH-1 is.
Anveo uses standard SIP. A softphone app on computer or on smartphone can be a SIP terminal. The OBi100 seems irrelevant. You don't need it to configure a softphone for Anveo and you can't use it (the Obi) for phone calls without an analogue (hardware) phone.
One of us, at least, is not understanding.

Looks like Anveo has a free option... I will have to check into that more... thanks for the link. :)
The only reason I mentioned Anveo was for authentication purposes for a Google Voice account. Yes, you can create a free account at Anveo but you would be charged for all inbound/outbound calls plus a small monthly line fee.
I thought the goal was to keep and use a GV account. Any reason you couldn't use the GV app on your Android instead of the MagicJack app?
