Google Voice is not a plain vanilla SIP trunk service. It is not intended for use with Asterisk, and it is only capable of making two simultaneous outbound calls. Attempting to use Google Voice as a SIP trunk provider for multiple calling violates Google's terms of use, and may result in your Google Voice service being suspended.
@SteveInWA , WOW! thats a lot of info about things I never asked about!
To reiterate, I asked in first question ONLY about the changing password. Absolutely nothing about the rest of it
In question 2 my question had NOTHING to do with the wiring of the obi jacks or pin-outs thereof.
I did type an error in question 3 but it should read "If I do not want to use the Obi202 phone port for Calls....." This has nothing to do with your "legal OPINION" of the Google TOS as nowhere does it say you are an attorney nor even an ermployee of Google. As someone else pointed out Google already allows several methods of simultaneous calls.
I appreciate your replies, but you may want to consider that your future replies need not be filled with irrelevant information.
I don't see any problem whatsoever with my replies. I answered what you originally asked; how can I possibly read your mind?
You asked about the password change scenario. I explained WHY it doesn't matter. Some people want to know why, not just a one word answer.
The reason I described the pin wiring of the OBi 202 jacks is that countless people over the years have misunderstood it, causing failures. Other posters and I have then had to explain it; I simply provided that information so you'd not fall into that trap.
As for the multiple call issue: I'm designated by Google at the highest-level of product experts on the Google Voice help community. I've been supporting the service for over a decade, and I have direct contacts at Google. I know exactly how the service works behind the scenes, and I am pointing out that a) it's Google's service, you have no legal contract nor entitlement to use it however you wish, and b) Google can and does kick people off of the service when, at its sole discretion, they don't use it as Google intends. It happens every week; just look through the official forum.
I'll make a note not to waste time replying to your posts going forward.
