Not Able to Change Expert Settings in Obi
Bigpyne:
Thanks lowatts and azrobert. The dialing string worked for me - the delay considerably shortened. Now I need to spend some time and learn more about the Obi. It seems that when I left the expert configuration menu and returned to ObiTalk, the change I had made went away. I will have to spend some time in the Obi book.
Anyway, thanks again for the solution - PhonePower tech support wasn't much help.

Mine has been working well, delay down to 4 and 8 seconds on the few numbers I tried. I guess maybe the 8 second delay phone number is hitting the international rule? It's in the format 572-xxxx.
So far my settings are holding even when I leave the Obi setup site. I don't have any idea what's causing your lost of settings issue, but I would try using a different web browser to make your changes (I have Firefox, Internet Explorer, and Chrome), and/or try a different way of exiting the settings web site. If you haven't already tried this, make your changes and click Submit to save the changes and close the web browser instead of logging out first.

I'm anxiously awaiting your results, lowatts. I just started service with PhonePower and I'm happy with everything so far except the dialing delay. Please post whether the string you used solved the problem.
If you want to read a detailed explanation how this fixes the delay dialing problem see:

Maybe you should wait until just before you go to bed. This will help you fall asleep. LOL
Thanks for the DigitMap. I replied to the PhonePower tech support email with what I did, hopefully they can do something with it. Something isn't right because is seems not all new users on this PhonePower plan, who uses the autoconfig by registering from the OBi site, is running into this issue. I only get a 2 second delay when I use the GoogleVoice line, so it seems to be doable, unless forwarding through GoogleVoice with PhonePower necessitates this extra delay.
