cell phone --> obi-attendant (press 2) --> dial out number from landline

(1/2) > >>

ericab:
as the subject states;
how do i dial out using my land-line ?
i've got the OBi 110. i've added my cellphone # as a trusted # and after 2 rings the obi attendant comes on, i select 2 to place an outbound call, and if i dial **1 then area-code and number, the call will be placed via google voice just fine....
(((  **2 is Anveo; which i use for 911. )))

but..
i want to dial out via my POTS land-line which i have connected to the right port. how do i do this ?

i tried just entering a phone number (without entering **X) but the attendant comes back and says "there is no service available to complete your call"

also, how do i make the OBi Attendant come on the line immediately when i call my landline ? as of now, it takes 2 full rings.

thanks for your time,
eric

Correction from dircom: Use **8 to call out on the POTS line.

The default service route access codes are defined as:

·         ** 1 : SIP Service Provider 1  or Google Voice Service 1

·         ** 2 : SIP Service Provider 2 or Google Voice Service 2

·         ** 3 : SIP Service Provider 3  or Google Voice Service 3

·         ** 4 : SIP Service Provider 4 or Google Voice Service 4

·         ** 8 : PSTN Line Port Service Provider1

·         ** 9 : OBiTALK Network

thanks for the replies but; i got 2 different answers.

that being said, i tried **9 as well as **8, and the attendant tells me "there is no service available to complete your call"

i 100% for sure have a working AT&T POTS line connected.

ericab,

Does the POTS line work from the phone plugged into the OBi110? Dial **8number to check. Also if you dial # you should get POTS dial tone. #  will connect the phone port to the line port to get direct access to the POTS line.

If you call your POTS number does the phone connected to the OBI ring?

Best to make sure the POTS line works incoming and outgoing to the OBi110 phone before we worry about why you cannot access it via the auto attendant.
