Title: How to change outbound # when dialing on obi202
Post by: jaykam on July 11, 2013, 05:17:16 AM
Hi

I am testing out Freephoneline and also currently have a POTS line. I turned on call forwarding on the POTS line then disconnected it and connected the obi202. Call forwarding is working fine...however, is there a was to change the outbound # when I dial calls so it doesn't show the Freephoneline.ca number temporarily...this is a test to see if it passes the wife test, so I can disconnect the POTS line.

The caller id on your outbound call is up to the voip provider.  Some voip providers will allow you to specify ("spoof") the caller id, many others will not.  I do not know about freephoneline.ca's policy.  When they do allow you to specify the number it is usually the same caller id for all outgoing calls.
