how do I send all of my soft phone calls to my PSTN?

ChrisJacob:
This is exactly what I am trying to do. (although I am using a SIP soft phone)
What username and password would I use to connect my soft phone back to the OBi202?

Thanks!

You cannot register a softphone to the OBi. If it requires registration you are SOL. You can use any username and password is not required.

Then add the following rule to your SPx inbound call route:
{username>(1xxxxxxxxxx|xxxxxxxxxx|xxxxxxx):li}

A call from username with a 11, 10 or 7 digit dialed number will be routed out the line port.

GreenGuy,

You can use the same rule. If you don't know the username the service is using sign into the OBi110 using the Web interface. Then go to Status -> Call History. The Peer Number on the inbound call is the username.

Thanks for the reply.

What I'm trying to do is this...

Only substituting a SIP soft phone for the Cisco.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

I know this has been discussed on the forum, but I don't know if anybody got this to work. Try a search for "pnn.obihai" and see what you get.

I see from the other topic you started you are using the Yate Client. The Yate Client requires registration, so you can't use the method I described above.

Here is another way to do this:

This requires another service and it's a two stage dialing. You call into the OBi and get the Auto Attendant, then call out.

If the device requires registration it won't work without some kind of third party service or device.  You could use a third party service like Callcentric for free that would call your Obi for free then place the call through your line port.

You could use a personal Asterisk server in your home.  You would want to put the Obi and asterisk server on a Uninterrupted Power Supply (UPS) in case of power failure.

Since this is for an alarm and it's going to be low usage maybe you should just use a service like localphone. You could add as little as $1 and the credit last forever as long as you use it at least once per year. If you need 911 calling Anveo can do that for $0.80 per month.

If power goes out the Obi110 even the old one with the relay will lose all sip connectivity which means no ability to make a call through the line port that is initiated by a sip device.
