I will locate another phone to test with,but you are correct - when I hit the first star - dial tone goes away, but if I hit a number, any number, dial tone remains.
Another odd fact though - the google voice log shows all the calls I try to make while still getting dialtone and not connecting!!. log shows those calls as though they were successfull.
When I attempt a call from the web GV interface I get the call placed but after 2-3 seconds it disconnects.
hard to figure if issue is with obitalk or GV
I connected phone to my vonage box and it works - i hit a number and dial tone goes away.
Wondering if the obi200 is tripping on numbers because its defect. Will try another phone though just to eliminate that possibility
