Using Google Voice to only make calls, not receive them. (OBi config only)

Disclaimer: I'm an old man going senile, so the following might not be accurate.
A device or softphone uses a XMPP priority level when it logs onto GV. The highest level is 127. If multiple devices are logged on to GV, the one with the highest priority will receive the incoming calls.
If 2 devices have the same priority I don't know if the first or last to sign on that will get the incoming calls.

I believe the OBi uses priority 127, so if GrooveIP doesn't use priority 127 you're SOL.
Try powering off your OBi, then logon with GrooveIP and then power on the OBi.
If that fails, instead of using GrooveIP try Bill Simons GV Gateway with a SIP softphone.
He uses priority 127 in his gateway.
The fix would be if Obihai would have the XMPP priority level as a config option.

Interesting. This would fix my issue entirely. I'll talk to support about it, but even with how great they seem to be, usually companies don't add a feature for the minority of users.
Thanks for the info.

SNRB Labs, the makers of GrooveIP reported back to me that their app currently has no way for the user to edit the XMPP priority setting. They also are not planning on implementing it unless a lot of people start wanting it.
Haven't hurd back from Obi about the same setting for their devices, but I am expecting the same response.

Just a stab in the dark.
Jabber Resources

"User can set different priorities for his/her resources. A priority of resource shows user's availability through this resource. When you are at home, you have "Available" status in your home Jabber client and high priority for it. When you are at work, your home Jabber client probably have status "Extended away" and low priority, while your work client is "Available". So all messages for you are coming to your work client."
The "Available" status seems to control the high priority. I'm thinking if you go to your GTALK/CHAT acct select a lower status, ex: Extended away.

I'll look through that when I have some free time tonight.
Also just heard back from Obi, and they gave me a solid NO to adding a XMPP priority configuration line.
