Dear Steve in Washington,
I hope to God that you're still active here as your comments are so sane and helpful.
I have an OBI200 and Google Voice home phone setup which I laboriously (for me at least) managed to create using my longstanding landline number, by switching it temporarily to a cell phone and then to google voice. Used my preexisting Panasonic set of portable phones – nothing fancy since I rarely use the number anyway.
The old phones got older and I plugged in a new set of Panasonic portables and get the dreaded and unhelpful message "...has not received a response from the service provider" when I dial out. When I dial my home phone, the computer rings, but the phone says "No Link" when I try to answer (it is not ringing). I am able to leave a message (I did not try to answer my call from the computer). So it appears that Google voice is working, so to speak.
When I log in to my Obi Home page it says that for SP1 Google Voice is Offline (SP2 Anveo account for 911 services has no comments).
When I look at my Google Voice account it appears to be working well. Dialing into the Obi setup number (2222222222) gets the same response.
Any recommendations on how to get my device to recognize a new phone? Or, where I can go to find out the solution?
Thanks.
Tim
