GV, still working fine... is there a way to "roll-over" on a 202?

(1/2) > >>

Corpy:
Hey all,
Getting ready to setup my business lines which will have 2 phones, I've had my 202 for almost 2 years and when I heard GV is not going to work on it anymore, I was crushed! But it's still working fine... what is going on with that?

Anyway, in 202 settings, I set it as "Incoming Calls will ring on" Phone 1 & Phone 2.   Now they both ring fine, but if i'm on a call on, say line 1, and someone calls the GV # again, Phone 2 does not ring... instead, Phone 1 beeps as a call is coming through.

Is there a way to set this up so that once one of the lines is being used... to roll-over to the other line? (I remember the roll-over term from my AT&T multiline days.)

Thanks all!

I'm sharing my notes on:

OBi202 Configuration for the Main # with two phones to:
1)   Ring only Ph1 for a single call, Call Waiting Disabled on Phone 1.
2)   Ring Ph2 only for a 2nd Call using “Call Forward Busy Line”.


Using ObiTALK configure:
                                                         Phone 1   Phone 2
Primary Line for Outgoing Calls Route to:      SP1         SP1
Phone Rings on Incoming Calls from:          SP1         

Enter ObiTALK “Expert” Configuration.

Locate:  Physical Interfaces – PHONE 1 Port.
   Uncheck –  Calling Features  –  CallWaitingEnable    Default Block

Locate:  Voice Services – SP1 Service.
   Uncheck –  CallForwardOnBusyEnable     Default Block
       Check  –  CallForwardOnBusyEnable     Block on the Left
 
   Uncheck –  CallForwardOnBusyNumber     Default Block
        Add –  CallForwardOnBusyNumber       Ph2(#)

Corpy:
Great! Thank you.
Looks like exactly what I need, I'll be trying this out at home tomorrow.

Any word on what is happening with GV and Obi? I noticed that Obi put GV back up on their webpage are a service again... it was down for a little while.

YASH:
 I have obi202 and have configured for two diff phone numbers and two diff physical phones.

By that way,
if needed you can use one number/line  to send fax and for elongated time, if needed
and also have two diff phone numbers instead of one.

Runehasa:
So i just hooked up my obi device again and tried using google voice and it seems to be working just fine.  Anyone know what the deal with this is?  I thought it was supposed to be cut off awhile ago
