sfruski,

Welcome.

1) Remove the default seting of "ph" at the end of this section:
SP1=GV

Voice Services->SP1 Service->X_InboundCallRoute = leave blank
All incoming calls don't have anywhere to go.

or

2) In the GV setting (web page), don't define any forwarding to Google CHAT.


Thank you for the help, though i don't think this is the exact solution I am looking for.  Correct me if I am wrong, but this settings just prevents the OBi from picking up on the SIP1 account.  The OBi will still be receiving the call, just not knowing what to do with it.

The second option does not work for me as I need that GV setting enabled, so to allow GrooveIP on my android phone to work correctly.

Is there an option in the OBi setting along the line of setting the GV re-connection interval?  What about enabling this setting: X_KeepAliveEnable, and setting this setting: X_KeepAliveExpires to 86,400 (24hrs)?  Or will "keep alive" keep trying ever time it gets disconnected?  (Both under Voice Services->SP1 Service.)

Also while writing this I have been playing with the inbound call route setting and it keeps automatically enabling itself after a few minutes.  (The default check-box comes back on.)

However I would like to have the OBi sign into Google Voice only to make a call.  This would allow my GrooveIP account to stop being signed out. 


I think for the moment only the OBi202 can have the same acct signed in multiple times.

The problem isn't the OBi, it is GV.  GV only allows once device, program or browser to be signed in at a time.  Even if the OBi202 can allow multiple sign-ons to the same account, it will only work for that device and not between it and another program.

I'm also talking with support.  Their first answer is that it is not possible to prevent the device from signing into GV, or setting it up to only sign into GV to make a call.  The next question I asked them, and am awaiting a response is if I can increase the re-connection interval.  Increasing that time won't fix my problem, but it will basically make it go away.

Just received my second reply from them stating it is not possible to extend the re-connection interval.  I might play around a little with the settings, but it looks like I am going to be out of luck.
