Obi202 stopped connecting to Google Voice
CheapPhone:
My Obi202 stopped connecting to Google Voice accounts. I have tried reboot, check the config, nothing helped. On both of my google voice phone numbers it is stuck at "Connecting to -83.-62.73.125". I can make phone calls using Gmail and google talk on other platforms (e.g. Groove IP , no I do not use it at the same time as Obi202). Is that a problem from Obihai's side or google or my device got broken somehow? It has latest update of firmware (3.0.1) as per the orange triangle and your web instructions. It did not work even before the firmware update, found it like that in the morning and was not able to make calls. I thought its the firmware but updating it did not help. Can you please help?
Thanks

No no change, all same. This happened overnight. Woke up in the morning, obi202 was not connected. I left it last night all fine and working.
This morning the phone lines came up for a brief time. Was able to make a call to check voicemail... (needs now to dial the password even though on Google Voice its supposed to allow direct no password when dialing from the same number/identifications as the phone/gmail account - that was covered in another thread but its not what I am complaining about). Other devices I have are connected to same network. rebooted everything few times, including the network etc.
Looks like google is trying to prevent connections from Obi202 - somehow they block it maybe if they can identify the emulation is not perfect, I know there were some security issues with the Sprint integration of google voice which may have started all the "security" issue and now they wont allow Obi202 box to connect?
Anyone else has seen this or is it just me/based on area/IP address or... ?
Thanks....!

My 202 is connected and working for 2 Google Voice accounts.

I did factory reset for the Obi202 (bottom round button looking raised circle, with small hole in the middle, use paperclip and push for 15 seconds till the red light blinks ). Also, have deleted the obi202 device from the Obitalk web.
Then reconfigure everything....
and it works now.
No voicemail notification though but that is an issue from google voice as described in other threads.
Thanks all!
