Title: Ring based on time of day (202)
Post by: ascaris5 on March 23, 2015, 06:47:51 PM
I'm looking for guidance on how to set up my 202 device to ring certain phones based on the time of day.  For example, I would like the phone connected to line 1 to ring certain hours of the day, and line 2 for other hours, on the same GV registration.  Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi:

You can set up ring schedules, if you wish, over on your Google Voice settings page:

From the OBiPlus Tutorial:
QuoteDay Time/Night Time Call Routing:
o In OBiPLUS, you may define your office hours (such as Monday – Friday, 9:00 am – 5 pm).
o In addition, you may define a number of holidays as exceptions to the normal office hours – for example: 1/1, 7/4 (US Independence Day).
o Any time during your office hours is known as Day Time; otherwise as Night Time.
o You may define rules to handle incoming calls differently during day time and night time.

I never used OBiPlus, so I can't help with the setup.

I use this to good advantage with my google voice account.  It doesn't ring MY GV number on the OBI during the business day when GV rings my office phone.
