Is this a possible Setup?

Hi, I'm new to Voip and I'm not sure about all the possibilities.  I live in an old apartment building that has a buzzer phone that connects directly through the wall outlet when a phone is plugged into it but it does not require (nor do I have) a phone line.  If I get the Obi110 and plug that jack into it, can I route the calls that come in to go to my cell phone?

Thanks!!

I can't give you an unqualified 'yes' but IMHO there is a very high probability that you can make this work.

Thanks for the reply.

I figured it out after a lot of experimentation.  The biggest hurdle was getting the Ring Detection correct and then it took me a long time to figure out that I needed to decrease the Voltage Thresholds to 0 because the line in had no voltage.  Anyway, for any future users...it is possible!
