In your testing, dial ***1 to see if you are drawing an IP successfully. You should be able to do this if your router is in place, even if your router is blocking your connectivity out. That IP number will let you put that address in your browser to poke around. Don't make changes, but just look around to show you are connecting locally.
In that test Rick suggested, you may have to reboot your cable modem after disconnecting your router.
Yes, do the **9222222222 test number test. You probably set up other things already, so you should then be able to try some test calls. If [at least some of] those things work, clearly your router was blocking the connectivity. DMZ would be one way to deal with this. But find out what is working first.

My first GV account set up and works fine on SP1.
But although my second GV account (w/different gmail account) seems to have configured properly, and I've followed all the Support Instructions for GV, Gmail, Gmail callout, and so on, all the calls into my SP2 do not ring. They only go to Voice Mail. :-\
So, my questions are:
1. Can I set it up in this manner?
2. If so, why is it not working properly?
???
Thank you.

Apologize, I'm trying to find instructions to set up 2nd GV # on Obi110. I try to add the device in 2nd GV and receive the following: "The device has joined the network before, and under another user's account."
Can someone direct me to the steps to add 2nd GV # under SP2? Thank you... tr
