Title: Auto Attendant Config and bandwith/quality
Post by: kdjose on October 31, 2011, 09:25:56 AM
I am about to purchase the OBi110, and want to verify a couple of capabilities.  I am about to move to a rural area that has excellent 4G broadband reception, which seems to be our best Internet option.  I would like to use your device with Google Voice connected to 4G.  Is there any reason why this connection would be any different than a hard wired connection? 

Secondly, I would like to configure the Auto attendant to press 1 to ring the house phone (an analog device), or press 2,3,4,5,6 to reach X family member (forward to their cell).  It would be really nice if there was a secondary AA so that the message could say 1 to ring house phone, or 2 to ring family members directly, then on the secondary AA 1 for Gomez, 2 for Mrs. Addams, 3 for Cousin It, etc. (it is Halloween afterall).  Is this possible?

Thanks for the help!

I don't have any experience with 4G but I would assume it would be satisfactory if it is a reliable connection.

Regarding the Auto Attendant, pressing 1 unconditionally reaches the OBi PHONE Port.  In order for callers to reach other family members without knowing their cell phone numbers, you could set up Speed Dials 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, etc.  The caller would have to press 2 to place another call and then dial the Speed Dial number followed by a #.

This post describes in more detail what you might want to setup. It also details how to setup a personal IVR on the OBi.
