Obi 100 to Obi 110 bridge

(1/4) > >>

HH235:
I have an OBI 110, Obi 100, and a Vonage number.  I want to set it up so family, friends, etc can call my vonage #, the 110 would pick up and either route my calls to my connected phone where the 110 is or to the 100 which is in another location.

Does anyone know where the instructions are for setting up this up?

I'm sure this has been asked before.  Sorry.

drgeoff:
By 'Vonage number' do you mean that you also have a hardware box which will ring a connected phone when the number is called?

If yes, the first step is to plug a cable between that phone port on the Vonage box and the LINE port on the OBi110 and plug a phone into the OBi110's PHONE port.  With default settings on the OBi110 the phone should ring when the Vonage number is called.

The second step is to 'fork' incoming calls to that phone and the OBi100 so that both phones will ring and the first one to answer will take the call.  The easiest way to do that is to change (on the 110) Physical Interfaces, Line Port, InBoundCallRoute from ph (its default value) to {ph, pp(123456789)} where 123456789 is the 9 digit OBi number on the bottom of the OBi100.

You don't need to use or disturb any other Service Provider settings on either OBi.

Thanks.  I am sorry i wasn't clear.  I actually ended up purchasing an OBI 202.  And I dont know how to set it up.  I'd like to call the Obi 202 using my Obi 100 then have the 202 bridge to my Vonage line.
Can you help?
thanks!

1.  You still are not clear!

2.  You cannot connect an OBi202 directly to a Vonage adapter.  The sockets on both of them are meant to have a phone plugged in.  You can connect the phone socket on a Vonage adapter to the LINE port of an Obi110 or to the LINE port of the optional OBiLINE accessory for the OBi202.

3.  If you have the credentials for your Vonage number, you can configure the OBi202 as a substitute for the Vonage adapter.  However that is a big "if".  I don't know if the credentials are readily obtainable from Vonage.

If it were me, I would set up a multi ring or forwarding on your Vonage number to a free incoming NY DID from Callcentric set up as one of the SP's then have the Obi forward it while it's still SIP via Obitalk to the other Obi you want as the endpoint. Callcentric NY DID's have unlimited free incoming and even though they are NY numbers, it doesn't matter as I would think your Vonage account has unlimited domestic LD anyway.  Callcentric supports caller ID spoofing so you could set up an outgoing CC line to display your Vonage number whenever you make a call either from the Obi's or the Obion softphone.
