Can I Send an Unanswered PSTN Call To GV Voicemail?

<< < (2/2)

kokosin:
Thanks, RonR.    Before your reply I was thinking that a ring count of zero might be the equivalent of using the CallForwardUnconditional feature.  Maybe not? 

But, bottom line, I think I would then try setting the CallForwardOnNoAnwerRingCount to 1 at a minimum and see how it goes.  The POTS line where the unanswered calls would end up is a line with basic service and no charge or limit for incoming calls.

IMO, call forwarding is not the best approach for this application.  Instead, the InboundCallRoute should fork the call to PH and the cell phone or voicemail system, with a small delay specified for the second path.

For example, incoming calls on the Line port would ring the Phone port, and after 3 seconds, also send the call (via SP1) to a cell phone.  The setup time to the cell (via GV) might be 7 seconds, so the cell phone would start ringing 10 seconds after the home phone.  However, unlike a forward, the home phone would continue to ring.  If you take e.g. 20 seconds to answer, the only downside is a missed call on the cell.  If the cell voicemail picks up at 25 seconds, the caller would hear ringing for a total of 35 seconds, before getting the voicemail greeting.
