Using Google Voice for Long Distance and Local Carrier for Local Calls

<< < (5/13) > >>

Ok............. blush.................. :-[

We're so happy with our OBi device, that we actually decided to drop our landline. We're going to port that to a prepaid phone line so we can take our time informing everybody to dial our VOIP number.

So now I have to figure out how to make all calls via Google Voice and FreePhoneLine  ;D Let's say all domestic calls over FreePhoneLine (SP1), and all international calls over Google Voice (SP2), that can't be that hard to set up, can it?

Simply port your landline to prepaid, then GV to keep the number...

Sophia,

With FPL on sp1 and GV on sp2. Set:

Physical Interfaces -> PHONE Port -> PrimaryLine : SP1 Service

Service Providers -> ITSP Profile A -> General -> DigitMap:

([2-9]11S4|<250>[2-9]xxxxxxS4|[2-9]xxxxxxxxxS0|1xxxxxxxxxxS0|<**2>011xx.)

Service Providers -> ITSP Profile B -> General -> DigitMap:

(1xxxxxxxxxx|<1>[2-9]xxxxxxxxx|011xx.)


Calls will route as follows:

[2-9]11  ->  three digit numbers starting with 2 to 9 > sp1
  7 digits  ->  Obi adds 250 > sp1
10 digits  ->  that start with 2-9 > sp1
11 digits  -> that start with 1 > sp1
    011+  ->  sp2

With regard to 911 calls, I would take a “belt and braces” approach. Although the above DigitMaps should route it correctly to FPL, I would makes changes in your Phone Port OutboundCallRoute:

Delete {(<#:>|911):li}

Insert {911:sp1},{(<#:>):li}

This will send 911 direct to sp1 with no delay.

I have guessed a little with Service Providers -> ITSP Profile A -> General -> DigitMap, as I’m not fully aware of what number formats FPL accept or need. You may need to get back to me about that.

Sophia:
I wish!!! But we are out in Canada, no way we can port our number to GV at the moment. In fact I don't think we can do it ever, because right now there is no VOIP provider who will accept numbers from our small town...  :(

Oh I see you posted while I was typing this, thanks for the information, ianobi!!

Hi everyone!
Sorry to hijack this thread but i actually have the same problem/setup as Sophie here.

I don't have a landline
My sp1 is google voice
My sp2 is Freephoneline.

I want the long distance calls to go out through GV and all the local calls to go use FPL.
I tried what was suggested in this post but so fare no luck..
Now when i try to do a call, it says there is no route for the call.

Any help with ITSPA, ITSPB and Physical phone digimaps would be greatly appreciated.

thanks,
