Call forward to mutiple numbers?

You said something about GV knowing if cell phone is down or not. Which setting is that?
It usually works automatically, provided that the forwarded-to Phone Type is set as Mobile in GV settings. Then, for example, send the Ooma call via SP1 to the SP2 number, which in turn forwards to your cell.
There is a small window of a few minutes, when you just went out of range or the battery just went dead, in which the cell system (thinking that the phone is still registered) takes a long time to go to voicemail, which will fool GV. If that is a problem, a workaround is to set Call Screening. Of course, don't do that if you have to answer calls while driving and don't have a way to safely send DTMF.

Hi all-
So here's my situation. I'm going to Israel for a month. I have an Obi 110 here at home in the US connected to Google Voice. It is not currently connected to my Verizon POTS line.
What I'd like to do from Israel:
1. Call the US and have people call me. A lot. I'll be working from there, so will be on the phone 6h/day.
2. When my Verizon POTS line rings in the US, ring both the home line and also ring on Google Voice.
My plan is to leave the Obi 110 at home, plugged in to a UPS and the POTS line. I don't know how to configure the Obi so that calls to my POTS line will ring on Google Voice and home. Is this possible without purchasing call-forwarding from Verizon?
I will bring my iPod Touch 4G with ObiTalk software to Israel, and use it to make and take calls. I will also use Google Talk + Google Voice from my laptop when necessary.
Is this the right idea? Or should I be bringing the Obi 110 with me to Israel? I'd rather leave it at home if I needn't bring it.

dschwarz,
Using Single-Stage Dialing Through Any OBi Trunk, you should be able to make calls from the OBiON App using either the Verizon POTS line or the Google Voice account configured on your OBi. Using the configuration auto-generated by the OBiTALK Web Portal, you will be limited to making calls through the trunk set as the PrimaryLine in the OBi.
After implmenting Single-Stage Dialing Through Any OBi Trunk, change ph or {ph} in the following settings to have all incoming calls ring both the OBi PHONE Port and the OBiON App:
Voice Services -> SP1 Service -> X_InboundCallRoute : {ph,pp(ob290123456)}
Voice Services -> SP2 Service -> X_InboundCallRoute : {ph,pp(ob290123456)}
Voice Services -> OBiTALK Service -> InboundCallRoute : ...,{ph,pp(ob290123456)}
Physical Interfaces -> LINE Port -> InboundCallRoute : {ph,pp(ob290123456)}
where 290123456 is the OBiON App OBiTALK number.

Hi, this is what im trying to achieve.
I would like to get incoming calls on SP1 simulringing the Obi PHONE port as well as dial a number using the PSTN port. How do I do this?
I tried {ph,(<**8>(0XXXXXXXXX))} in SP1 X_InboundCallRoute but it doesn't work this way, I guess I am not quite right somewhere but fail to find an answer in the forums too.
Your help will be greatly appreciated!
Thx

Hi IvoD,
Have you tried {ph,li(XXXXXXXXXX)} instead?
Just a stab in the dark,
