Obi110 - Call Forwarding on No Answer does not work correctly

[noobee]

These are my settings:

CallForwardOnNoAnswerEnable - Checked
CallForwardOnNoAnswerNumber - sp1(1xxxxxxxxxx)
CallForwardOnNoAnswerRingCount - 3

1xxxxxxxx is my cell number
sp1 is my Google Voice number

When I tried to add SP1(mycellnumber) where SP1 has my Google Voice configured, it did forward to my cell number, but after one ring on my cell phone, the caller got the Google Voice voicemail greeting, and my cell phone did not ring after the first ring.

Is there anyway to avoid the "Google Voice" voicemail greeting and the call to get forwarded to my cell number, and keep ringing beyond 1 ring?


When I changed the setting to below:

CallForwardOnNoAnswerRingCount - 3

The call was forwarded without being forwarded to Google Voice voicemail.

Hi noobee,

Circumventing Google's voicemail is a topic of much discussion on this forum.  If you search through the forum here (as well as on Google Voice's own forum), you will see lots of people asking for ways to prevent Google's voicemail from taking the call.

The closest we seem to have come is found in the following thread.  Take note particularly of the various suggestions listed by QBZappy in this thread:  Auto Attendant setup?

Hope it points you in the right direction,
