Google Voice quit working
erkme73:
Step 1 was ok on both of my 110 boxes (GV configured correctly with actual number and chat checked). Neither box was ringing on incoming calls, but both would make calls just fine.
I deleted both boxes from the Obi account, and added the first without issue. Upon doing so, incoming calls started to ring just fine.
On my second box, I can't seem to get it to register with Obi using the add device feature. I dial the **5 XXXXXXX number, and it says it's registered the number with the server, but it times out on the web page. I tried the **9 222 222 222 echo test as suggested, and it works just fine. I power cycled the box, and retried.
As a last resort, I logged into the box using the LAN IP and did a reset configuration. Rebooted, and reattempted everything. Same results - with the echo test still working.
Did I just boff my box?
Edited to add: After a few more attempts, it finally took. I'm now registered. HOWEVER, I still am not receiving calls on the box. I can make them fine. What else can I check?
Edited again: Having done nothing else, it suddenly started working. Perhaps GV is just having issues at the moment. Figures. Usually when I'm doing any kind of network testing, Murphy will have my ISP go down so that I think it's my network...

I am trying to get the google chat box to show as a option, no lick getting this done....can anyone provide a walk thru for this?
"To get the GChat phone to show back up you have to revert Hangouts to the old Chat. Attempt one call (doesn't matter if you install the voice/video feature). Then refresh your GV forwarding phones and you will see the GChat option again.
"
I cant find where to get "revert" in hangouts....
SteveInWA:
Log into your Gmail account, not your Google Voice account. Look on the left side of the web page for your avatar (either a generic head and shoulders icon, or a photo or graphic you uploaded). Click it to reveal the Hangouts settings box. Click the link at the bottom right of the box that says "revert to old Chat".
See the attached screenshot.

Took forever to find it, had to make it the new hangouts then found it and got it back now, thank you so much for your help.

I've searched and searched to the icon to revert back to the old Google Chat and it appears that it has been removed. I'll try adding a screen shot if someone has any input on this.
I have two OBI devices and the one I've had for years has the Google Chat forward checked but for the life of me I can't get it onto the newest device the OBi200 I bought last week.
