Hello -- I have an Obi202, which I have used for several years now. GV and PhonePower are my service providers.
For work, I frequently have to make long calls (~4 hours) into a conference line. I am leading the calls, using a cordless phone (speakerphone).
I usually use PhonePower for these calls since GV limits calls to 180 min (3 hours). Before today, I never had any problems with my setup.
Today, my call "stopped" after 110 min. After I dialed back in, it stopped again at 64 min, then again at 16 min, then again at 10. By "stopped," it seems the call just stopped receiving/transmitting. I could not hear them and they could not hear me, but I only got a disconnect (hang up/dialtone) after the 16 min drop. The other times, the line just went silent and the call appeared to stay connected. My cordless phone has two handsets and this happened with both.
After searching the forums, I have tried a few things in the handset -- making sure it was plugged in all the way (might not have been), moving it farther from the Obi (it was basically right next to it), moving it farther from the router (ditto).
I would like to now test the phone to see if this solves the problem. I have another 4-hour long call with the same client tomorrow and don't want to go through this again with the call dropping over and over. The problem is, I don't know how to conduct a 4-hour long test call?
Any other suggestions welcome as well. Thanks.
