Use single GV numnber on two OBI devices

(1/3) > >>

rklarman:
I have an Obi110 and Obi202 as well as 2 GV accounts.  I would like to have a single number (from the main GV account) used for incoming and outgoing calls (on both Obi devices).  What is the proper procedure for setting this up?  The 2 Obi units will be at 2 locations.

I also want to make sure that the only GV voicemail is used on the main GV account.

jimates:
It is currently not possible to log into one google account from 2 Obi's. Recent news about Talkatone being able to do it leads to hopes that Obihai will figure it out also.

You can do it by routing calls from the second Obi to the first using the Obitalk Service.

jimates:
Configure the google account on Obi #1

Incoming calls are easy. You add the number for Obi#2 to the inbound call route of Obi #1
Obi #1 - inbound call route for the SP where the google voice is set up.
{ph,pp(ob200xxxxxx)}
where 200xxxxxx is the Obitalk number of Obi #2

The default setting on Obi #2's Obitalk Service inbound call route should be ph, which is what it should be.

rklarman:
I set it that way - and when I call the GV number assigned to Obi 202 it rings 3x and then the Obi attendant says to press 1 and then it rings on the phone on the Obi110.  I set the AA to disabled on both Obi units.

rklarman:
I had to update the ObiTalk Service InboundCallRoute to {ph} to resolve this.
