As long as "South America" truly means South America, and not Mexico, it should work fine. Google Chat/Hangouts will generally not work in Mexico, thanks to their government's ties to Carlos Slim's telecom empire.
Steve...is there a compilation or list of countries that GV and the OBi will not work in?
Yep: https://support.google.com/chat/answer/1267644?hl=en

You should be able to without any additional configuration. If you are blocked, just go into your Gmail and/or Google Voice immediately after the block to confirm that it was you accessing the account. Sometimes Google will block a suspicious activity--as logging into your account from another country that isn't your normal habit as a way of protecting your security. However, if you are doing it (in that country or using a VPN connection), all you have to do is log in and click yes if something shows up asking something to this nature, "A suspicious attempt...was this you?"
