I am interested in buying another OBI110 device (for a relative) but would like to know how it might work if I have two phone lines (two numbers, two lines, same physical jack).
Would I be able to select which physical land line I wanted to place outbound calls on? If so, would it be the same way i do it now with buttons on the phone or would it require dialing a code before the number i want to call?
Could I receive inbound calls on both lines through the OBI device + whatever VOIP lines i have configured?
Thanks,
Garrett
The OBi only connects to Line 1 on both the LINE Port and PHONE Port jacks. The LINE Port supports 1 PSTN line only. The PHONE Port supports single line telephones only.
You can have multiple service providers on an OBi (PSTN/SP1/SP2/OBiTALK). Incomining calls from any provider ring the PHONE Port. If the PHONE Port is already in use, you'll get a Call Waiting signal.
Outbound calls are made by default through the service defined at:
Physical Interfaces -> PHONE Port -> PrimaryLine
An alternate service can be used by prefixing the dialed number with:
**1 -> SP1 Service
**2 -> SP2 Service
**8 -> PSTN Line
**9 -> OBiTALK Service
