The Phone Port (FXS) has three ringer settings that the user can vary:

RingFrequency: default: 20 Hz  Range: 14 hz to 68 hz
RingVoltage: default: 70v Range: 55v to 82v
RingWaveform: default: Sinusoidal OtherSetting: Trapezoidal

For some setting guidance, I see the Cisco ATA Admin Guide has this recommendation if your phone doesn't ring with their ata:

IMPORTANT: Ring and Call Waiting tones don’t work the same way on all phones.
When setting ring tones, consider the following recommendations:
• Begin with the default Ring Waveform, Ring Frequency, and Ring Voltage.
• If your ring cadence doesn’t sound right, or your phone doesn’t ring, change
your Ring Waveform, Ring Frequency, and Ring Voltage to the following:
- Ring Waveform: Sinusoid
- Ring Frequency: 25
- Ring Voltage: 80v


Where do I change these settings? Thanks

Shale:
I suggest that you call your GV number with a cellphone. Note when the call starts ringing as perceived by the sounds from the cellphone. Note when the call starts ringing locally. See if there is big difference.

Well it should be working, especially when set to 2 rings.  It works for me at 4 rings with an old AT&T answerer and now with a Uniden DECT6 combo.  It may be a quirk of your phone.  Which one/brand are you using?  I also saw a post where folks were having answering machine problems when using a phone splitter.
