Hi, rank newbie here, trying to scale the learning curve as quickly as possible.
My family (wife + 5 kids) is about to move, and I want to use the occasion to change how we deal with telephones at home.
Current set up is a panasonic 2-line base unit with wireless 2-line handsets (DECT 6.0). I'd like to shift entirely to VoIP using the OBi202 and 3 Google Voice accounts, but would love some confirmation from more experienced members that the configuration I'd like to use will work.
GV1 - my line
GV2 - wife's line
GV3 - kids' line
panasonic base unit and handsets:
L1 - receives incoming call from GV1 and uses GV1 to place outgoing calls
L2 - receives incoming call from GV2 and uses GV2 to place outgoing calls
then I would buy a separate single-line phone for the kids:
L3 - receives incoming call from GV3 and uses GV3 to place outgoing calls
That way, I can have 3 distinct rings and, presumably, all three lines in use at once. In fact, might it not be possible to have 2 calls happening simultaneously on L3, which would allow 4 separate calls to take place at once?
I'm certainly open to other suggestions but this is my first stab. Just want to make sure I'm headed in the right direction.
Many thanks in advance!
