What's more, OBi users get premium features like Caller ID, telemarketer (spam) call blocking, call waiting, 3-way calling, and voicemail that acts like email – including voice message alerts by text and email with speech to text transcription.
Are you receiving Caller ID on your Obi connected handsets without using and extra service like Callcentric?

Yep, I have 4 GV lines set up on two OBi110's. Incoming & outgoing CID's have worked very well with the 2 cordless DECT 6.0 phones connected to the OBi110's.

What doesn't always work well is the hand-off between Google Voice (GV) and VoIP providers that are routed calls via GV. I've opened support tickets with Callcentric on this issue and they claim the CID data and flags they receive from GV are not always valid, and that may be the fault of the networks that Google uses to forward those calls. I've never had a problem with the CID information passed through GV to T-Mobile or Sprint, but Google may have direct trunks to those carriers.
Bottom line is that CID works fine for GV connections via Google Talk (Obihai's primary method), but there may be issues forwarding to other providers via GV and getting the correct information from them at the Obihai device.

I've never had a problem with the CID info passed through GV to TMo, AT&T, Sprint & Verizon either. Those are the mobile carriers my family members are using.
lhm.:
CID only or Cnam as well?
