How about support for Caller ID name lookups?

<< < (2/5) > >>

QBZappy:
lhm.,

I think it was for OBi users outside of the North America. I remember reading about issues re CID some users were having.

lhm.:
Detection of Caller ID on PSTN Enhancement Fixed for international users. If so perhaps this would have been a little more accurate.  :-X

gerry:
I'd also add my request for a Caller ID lookup feature, especially for Gmail contacts.

fbroce:
I agree. I am using voip.ms on sp2 for incoming calls and get name and callerid. Works well and
is not expensive. Presently I am using gv for outgoing. That works well too.If I use gv for both I don't get name callerid as discussed in this thread.

My guess is there are not really any "free" solutions however, if you could at least add your gv contacts to display the name associated with the contact, that would be good. Most voip providers have this feature.

MichiganTelephone:
If you look at the perl script I posted in this thread, Support for notification popups on computers, and in particular this post, you can get reasonably good Caller ID name lookups for free if you have access to a server running Caller ID Superfecta.  Unfortunately, you can't make the name appear on the phone (unless Obihai makes some changes to accommodate this) but you can make it appear in a popup on your computer.  I just wish that there were some way built into the Obihai devices to send a http request to an external source (containing the calling number) and receive back a name string, which could be displayed on the phone.
