how do I add PhonePower to OBI-100 when both SP1 and SP2 were used

(1/2) > >>

Hi everybody,

MY OBi-100 currently set: SP1 to Google Voice, SP2 to Callcentric.

I also have a 1 year account with PhonePower with a phone number. I would like to add the PhonePower to my OBI-100 to use its 911 service but I do not know where to add because OBI-100 have only two SPx that are already used as above. I know I can use CallCentric 911 but I already paid for 1 year with PhonePower so I prefer to use it. I also want to keep CallCentric account on SP2 for routing inbound call to my cellphone so the swap PhonePower for CallCentric is not an option.

Thanks for your help

You don't have a lot of options. I'm pretty sure PhonePower requires registration so you couldn't configure it as a voice gateway.

Since you've already paid for a year's subscription to PP I'm curious what you need Google Voice for? I also have Callcentric on SP2 and subscribed to PhonePower for 1 year. I removed Google Voice on SP1 and replaced it with PhonePower. My incoming calls come in thru Callcentric on SP2 and my outgoing calls go out on SP1 thru PhonePower or any of my Voice Gateways I have configured.
Just forward your GV number to your PhonePower number.

Taoman,

Thanks for your response. I still use GV on SP1 for outbound call for free till they implement their turn off.

Can I add PP to a voice gateway ? Or using PP just like I use CallCentric now to route inbound call to ring my cell phone ?

Inbound calling requires registration, and registration requires occupying an SP slot. Both of your SPs are in use. So you can't add a third service that requires an SP.

I understand but you still have to work within the limitations of your device and you only have 2 Service Provider trunks available to you. If you want to add PhonePower then one of your current SPs has to go. If you already have a 1 year PhonePower subscription why not use those minutes by swapping out Google Voice for PhonePower?

As mentioned, I'm fairly certain PP requires registration even for outbound calls so a voice gateway wouldn't work. Plus, if you will be having incoming calls then registration is required anyway.

You would have to elaborate exactly how you are using CallCentric "to route inbound call to ring my cell phone?" Are you using a softphone on your cell phone that registers to your CC account?
