Obivoice (Intelafone) vs. Forthcoming Obihai Service?
twinclouds:
I just found obivoice a couple of days ago. Signed for a 30day trial and did lots of testing. I would say I really like it and will sign for the two years contract.
There's no quality problem except some delay but not too bad. One feature I like is number spoofing because I would like call out use different method but incoming call come to the same place. This is one thing I don't like GV in the past. Auto configure of obi devices works fine, except for one small glitch, which has been fixed. I tried different devices and programs, e.g., Linksys ATAs, asterisk, csipsimple and etc. Obivoice just behave as a standard SIP Voip service, which is not the case for MagicJack, Ooma and nettalk duo. I can even receive calls on my Android phone using csipsimple but haven't tested much yet.
In any case, I feel it is an ideal replacement for GV, at least for me.

Has anyone tried to fax over the line? No the web portal. I want to just hook up a fax machine to the line and use it solely as a fax line.
Johnny:
Just wanted to correct something I wrote in my previous post in this thread.
I posted that I had a 60 day trial period, it is in fact a 30 day trial period.
I must have been looking at my minutes when I posted that. It's 30 days or 60 minutes, whichever comes first, I believe.
Sorry......

Let me toss out this bit of info for new Obivoice subscribers. In order to have your name display on your outgoing caller ID log into your Obivoice portal and go to numbers and then manage numbers and click on edit. The blank to enter your name will become active.

Thanks for the tip. Previously I did the spoofing option which worked to show just my number. I tried this change but can't get the name to show. I have Obivoice showing as the primary line for outbound calls in Google Voice assuming it would bypass Google Voice if it limited caller id to number only. Are you using this option for outbound Obivoice calls without google voice involved? i.e. what I'm trying to do won't work.
(on a completely different topic, since I don't see a forum help conversation thread - is there a way to change/correct the name associated with my posts?)
