Want to receive calls from only one phone number

[VoipUser3]

Hello all. I'm new to the forum. I just got a new OBI200 and want to set it up so it only rings when called from one specific number. Can anyone help me to do that? If there is documentation explaining how to do that you can just point me there. I'm a technical person, but no experience with the innards of voip.

Thanks in advance.

You have not indicated which ITSP you are using.  There can be slight differences in what format they use for sending Caller ID.  For example Google Voice prepends the 10 digit number with +1.

You need to change the X_InBoundCallRoute of the relevant SP to something like

{(+16665551234):ph},{} for GV

{6665551234:ph}.{}  for ITSPs that send a 10 digit CallerID

Use Expert mode on your dashboard at obitalk.com to make the change under Voice Services, SPx Service.  Clear both tick boxes at the right hand side of the line to make the field editable.  When done click "Submit" at the bottom and wait for the OBi to reboot.
