I am using an ipkall number pointing to
sip.iptel.org to handle incoming calls on my obi 202. I am trying to get the iptel voicemail and call forwarding to work. First, the voicemail. On the iptel web site I have Account>forward set to Voicebox. When I call my ipkall/iptel number and let it ring until timeout, I get the prompt for entering voicemail--as I should. I have set up a star code to access the iptel voicebox, which calls the number "1000" (the iptel voicebox access number), because the obi 202 won't let me call that number directly.
1. After I leave a voicemall I call 1000 and get the message: "There are no messages in your voicebox". Can anybody tell me why I get this message, when I just left a voicemail in my voicebox?
2. I also want to access my iptel voicemail from my dumb cell phone. If I dial my ipkall/iptel number and press * to access voicemail (like on a lot of other voicemails such as google's), it just continues to ring. Same with #. So dialing my own number doesn't work directly. However, with all the flexible features of the obi, I think I should be able to have a setting whereby I can call my ipkall/iptel number, press * or # while it is ringing, and enter a *code (or something else) that will call the "1000" voicebox access number. Can anybody tell me how to do this?
