Using speeddial to call obi to obi. Is there a way to just hit the speed dial button and avoid going to the obi attendant and having to press 1 to complete the call?

Dranon2, 

I'm current using the configuration suggested by azrobert on my four OBi devices and it "works" perfectly for me.

Okay that worked Thanks! One more I have an ip phone SPA 504g connected to one of the obi's. It works great for outbound call but inbound do not ring??  Also when I try the internal speed dial I just get an error message that we could not complete your call.

Another question I love the obi1032! Expensive but really nice! Is there a way to make the caller id from the obi to obi have a Name rather than the obi's number?

azrobert

First, the number displayed is the callerid number, not callerid name.
You can add a name to the OBiTalk Service like this:

Voice Services -> OBiTalk Service -> DisplayName: Dranon2

GREAT that worked!  Just so anyone else reading this wants to know if you hit # after your speed dial number number it puts the call through instantly instead of waiting for numbers!
