Backing Off (0s): Authentication Error
brucers:
Ok, I'm having the same problem. I logged into my google.com/voice page on one tab and I have a google voice number. I also logged into the Obitalk page on another tab in same browser. I have a newly purchased OBi100 and it has firmware 1.3.0 2872. I also get the "backing off, authentication error" when trying to configure GV. As with the previous poster, I also do not have a gmail account with a gmail address(just my local ISP email address) and I have the red exclamation points next to the value of my "AuthUserName" and "X_UserAgentPort" in the Expert Config menu. I'm sorry, but I'm confused on this. I already have a google account that I'm signed into on one tab. Do I have to open a gmail account too?
SteveInWA:
Have you actually already set up a Google Voice account, using that non-Gmail address? You need to follow the instructions and get Google Chat calling added to Google Voice before you can do anything with GV on your OBi.

Yes, I go to google.com/voice and in the left side of the page it lists the number I have picked for GV under "Your Number:". Then I click on settings and under "Forward calls to:" it lists Google Chat with my non-gmail email address and I have that box checked. Then under that I have my "Home phone" box unchecked. I just want to replace my landline. I have no mobile phones.
SteveInWA:
Start over, from a factory reset, and follow my exact instructions. Report back here with details of the specific step that fails to complete as described.

So, I should set up a gmail account then? That is something I never did.
