2nd OBI at another physical location

(1/3) > >>

Hollywood:
Hi,

I have an OBI110 and GoogleVoice that all works perfectly. On my OBI Dashboard it shows my OBI number under endpoints and a softphone number.

My question is, is it possible to buy another OBI and connect it in another city and add it's OBI address into the OBI Dashboard's Endpoints so that incoming calls would ring both OBI's in either location?  ....OR could another OBI (and Dashboard) point to the same GoogleVoice account(s)?

Thanks!

I'm no GV expert, but I don't believe that GV supports "call-forking" to multiple endpoints. However, what you are asking is easily achieved with two OBis.

Set up your second OBi as an independant device with its own Dashboard etc. If GV is on sp1 on your original OBi, then set:

Voice Services > SP1 Service > X_InboundCallRoute:
{ph,pp(ob200123456)}

Where 200123456 is the number of the second OBi.

You can set a delay so the second OBi only gets called if the first OBi does not answer the call say within six seconds in this example:

Voice Services > SP1 Service > X_InboundCallRoute:
{ph,pp(ob200123456;d=6)}

This method uses the OBiTALK network to fork the call onto the second OBi. Call forking to up to four devices is allowed.

ian,

Can you see any way of using d=seconds as a pause. Something like this:
{sp1(5145551212;d=2),sp1(1234)}

Explanation:
Dial number, pause 2 seconds, then dial password.

QBZappy,

The never ending search for the elusive pause! We need Sherlock Holmes   

If it did work it would be something like this:
{sp1(5145551212),sp1(1234;d=2)}

The number is dialled straight away, then the password after 2 seconds. To be useful it would have to be in a speed dial. It's worth thinking about, so I will, but I'm not expecting anything much in the way of answers!

The sip signalling gets in the way.  You dial the number and a sip INVITE is sent and the logic waits for signalling answer.  If it dialed again it would have to send the number by dtmf after the connection.  It's not that you couldn't design something to do that but it would be a significant addition.
