With the OBI220 lack of "line" feature, I was wondering if I can, access and dial through an OBI 110 device with a PSTN LINE!
Appreciate your help.
Best,
Roddy
Dial 98005551212 and 18005551212 will be sent to PSTN
Dial 95551212 and 5551212 will be sent to PSTN
Use OBi Expert to make the following changes:
OBi110
Voice Services -> OBiTalk Service -> InboundCallRoute:
{510222222:li}
Physical Interfaces -> Line Port -> InboundCallRoute:
ph,pp(510222222)
Replace 510222222 with the OBi number of the OBi202
OBi202
Physical Interfaces -> Phone Port -> DigitMap
Add 9xxxxxxxxxx|9xxxxxxx| after the beginning parenthesis
Physical Interfaces -> Phone Port -> OutboundCallRoute:
The 1st rule is: {([1-9]x?*(Mpli)):pp}
Change it to: {(<200111111*>(<9:1>xxxxxxxxxx|<9:>xxxxxxx)):pp}
Replace 200111111 with OBi number of the OBi110
Just to verify, these instructions will work with an Obi110 and an Obi 200 also?
I assume incoming will ring the phone on the 200 and to dial out using POTS you would dial 9 before the number (on the 200).
How would this be modified when local calls require 10-digit dialing, but do not allow adding the 1- to local calls.
The above setup will work with an OBi200 and OBi110.
You dial a 9 prefix on the OBi200/202.
No prefix when dialing from the OBi110.
I forgot to route inbound PSTN calls to the OBi2xx.
I updated my post to include routing inbound.
Exactly what are your requirements?
Does your PSTN only use 10 digits or is it only for certain area codes?
I live in the Phoenix area and we have 3 local area codes (480, 602 and 623).
I'm in 480, so 7 digits are required when calling a 480 number.
10 digits are required for 602 and 623.
11 digits are required for others.
I'm using a similar setup with my OBi200 and OBi110, but routing calls over my local network and not the OBiTalk network.
When I dial 9+7 digits I send 7 digits.
When 9 followed by 10 digits in 602 and 623 I send 10 digits.
When 9 followed by 10 digits for others I add a 1 prefix and send 11 digits.
You can send 11 digits to your SIP provider and 10 digits to OBi110/PSTN without needing a prefix.
Edit:
Use this rule for my requirements described above plus 911. Modify it for your needs. "#" will get dial tone on PSTN.
{(<200111111*>(<9:>(602|623)xxxxxxx|xxxxxxx|<9:1>xxxxxxxxxx|911|<#:>)):pp}
I'm not overly worried right now, as I don't have a 110 yet, but have considered a 110 if I come across one cheap.
In Manitoba, the whole province is area code 204 with a 431 overlay. Some numbers in the area code are long distance, others are not. If you dial the 1 on a local, BellMTS kicks up a "Do not dial 1" message instead of just putting it through. We use our VOIP line with Circlenet 99% of the time, but it would be nice to have the PSTN hooked into the system. (BellMTS is giving us the landline as part of a TV/Internet/Phone deal)
I figured I ask now, during a pertinent discussion. Thanks for your time!
