Title: Obi 110 configuration problem with google voice
Post by: vp25 on May 24, 2015, 06:28:31 AM
Hi everyone,
I am trying to configure my obi 110 with google voice.
I already have google voice account but when i setup it as my service provider in obi portal, after showing spinning image with authenticating and connecting status it shows autentication error, backing off.

FYI, the google voice account i am using doesnt have gmail activated. And i use my hotmail email address to login i to google voice. It is still google account. Do i have to activate my gmail account in order to configure it with obi??

Yes, of course, you need to have a working Gmail account, and follow the instructions.

See my detailed instructions here:  http://www.obitalk.com/forum/index.php?topic=8560.msg56460#msg56460

By the way, this weekend (and on many weekends), there seems to be a problem with the OBiTALK portal.  This may cause problems setting up Google Voice.  If it just sits there spinning, try again later in the week.
