Can the Obitalk 110 allow a filtering on the POTS line. Looking for a device that can intercept "no caller Ids" and pass to a Raspberry Pi for filtering to allow on to ring the phone.
Especially after getting rid on scammers and marketing calls

Thanks and Regards

Yes, but if that call blocking is the only thing you want to do and do not already have the 110 and RPi there may be easier, cheaper and tidier solutions.  Eg in the UK the £50 Call-Blocker http://www.maplin.co.uk/p/cpr-call-blocker-n46qc.  (Recently seen in Tesco store at £40.)

Thanks for the suggestion - but there is a lot more I would like to explore in the VOIP area -so will be getting to OBITalk 110. Want to get the advantages of having VOIP with a fallback to a full PSTN system. Especially want to explore the area of "challenging" calls from unlisted numbers for a PIN code (so medical calls can get through but not scammers, marketers etc)
Thanks and regards
