The Line Port can be very useful where your family/friends do not live in North America. Let's say you are in USA, your family in Spain. Locate an OBi110 in Spain, then you can bridge calls from an OBi in USA to the OBi110 in Spain at no cost, then use the Spanish PSTN as if you were located in Spain. Calls can also be bridged dialling in from Spanish PSTN numbers via OBiTALk network to USA, then using a GV number to make free calls throughout the USA.
There are many examples of this type of call bridging on this forum.
say you live in Italy, your daughter is in the US, if both had an OBI, and you wanted to call your daughter and various numbers in the US, you just dial Obi to Obi, and then dial out using the GV call out feature right?
So in this specific instance you don't need a PSNT line in the USA, when you are calling from another country to the USA to dial anyone else (that does not have an Obi) correct?
To summarize, the main benefits of OBI 110 vs 100 are:
911 feature
ability to plug in another ATA to the 110 model
call from USA to another country, then go out on that countries PSTN network?
ability to use the PSTN network in another country, dial into the obi, bridge to OBI in the USA and dial out using GV
any more?
thanks
