I am looking at expanding my VOIP services and already have an obi110 set up with a Voipo ata feeding  the line input and GV on sp1 + Callcentic on SP2 for 911 only.
I currently use Voipo for my home service and the OBi is used for my Home Office line using GV. I am thinking of dropping Voipo and going with Call Centric for my home service if I do this I would need another ata to keep the lines separate with 2 line outs. I also am thinking of using a second GV line for outgoing calls on my home line and CC for incoming to keep Cnam. So I would need to either replace my Obi110 with an Obi202 or get another Obi100. I am just wondering what the advantage of disadvantage of doing it with one 202 or using the two (obi110+1000 devices. Cost is a factor to as it would save me about $35 to just get a second Obi100. On the other hand if I get an Obi2o2 I would have a spare ata for future or incase of failure.  :-\

Well the question really is do you need another LINE in? Excluding features specific to each model. Two Obi100/110 currently can do what the Obi202 does.

Reading over the data sheets there are a lot of things the 202 can do that 2 obi100/110's cant do. Doe one each line can access up to 4 S ip/GV lines independently. Also # lets you use them as a 2way interoffice message line. the 202 has T.38 fax support listed the others do not. I am leaning toward the 202 just for the convenience one box.
