CircleNet would like to introduce ourselves to the Obi world
dial.tone:
It looks like I finally put all the pieces together in the right order and my Obi is working the way I wanted it to work -- Callcentric-in/Circlenet-out on SP2 ringing line 2. I don't think there is anything I had to do that azrobert didn't recommend, it just took me awhile to get it. Do I understand it all? Nope. But I understand more than I did when I started. Hopefully, I'll be successfully testing the fax capability on line 2 today and setting up line 1 the same way for voice. Thanks to everyone for contributing to a great forum.

FAX using GV XMPP works perfectly, but before XMPP faxing for me was inconsistent.
I recently did some limited testing sending 1 page faxes using CircleNet.
I was successful using this technique:

I did not try without the Star Code.
Dial like this:
*01,18005551212
Comma on my fax is a pause.
If you have problems receiving faxes, putting a cheap DSL filter between the OBi and FAX helped me before XMPP.

I've been absent from here for a while but I wanted to chime in about faxes on our service. At CircleNet we do our best to make sure that all US routes support T.38 and we only do G711 inside our network and with our peers wherever possible, this is as much as we can do to make sure faxes complete.
VOIP isn't ideal for faxing and your results may vary I have some customers that say it works well and I've heard horror stories. That said if you are using our service and you do have trouble faxing please open a ticket, we can't promise we can solve your particular fax problem but we'll try.
I think that in a lot of cases features on the device such as jitter buffers and comfort noise generation could be problems and dialing * codes as suggested by azrobert or changing system settings might help.

Exactly the same here!!
Thanks azrobert, you da man!
Now I just need to figure out a plan for SP1 on the wife's line.
Unfortunately there is quite a pregnant pause (before it starts ringing) dialing out on SP2 via Circlenet & that won't fly for the wife.
FWIW, Circlenet's rates are about 1/10 of what I was paying/min on a Verizon POTS line!

And my next post in the same thread on international calls.
Sam,
I should be on your payroll with all the work I'm doing here. LOL
