Thanks for the detail instruction. I purchased OBI200 years ago when we had a glitch with GV. I didn’t spend time to figure out outbound redirect. Thanks to you, I now have a complete setup with two GV numbers.

Interestingly, after following your guidance, OBI web shows I have SP3 and SP4 "Not Configured". The inbound and outbound both work though.

Great guide for a stinky situation 😉

Can you please advise how to set this up for a second and third GV line?

Can the additional lines use the same trunk to asterisk and send their DID info or will it require a trunk for each google line and therefore it will only be possible to have two GV lines per obi? (SP1+SP3 and then SP2+SP4)

@mendel: I have the Obi202 setup at the office and iPBX 13-13 is on a HiFormance VPS server. I’m able to make outgoing calls, but not receiving incoming yet.

is there anyway to set this up without having the obi device on the same private network?

Thank you, thank you, thank you!

As an Asterisk/FreePBX (yeah, I know) hobbyist, I was dreading the demise of GV’s XMPP-ending. After reading this post I bought an Obi202 to setup my two GV numbers/trunks on my RasPBX. It works like a charm!

Step by step, and a little translating to make the second set work (SP2 and SP4) I was able to get both numbers to work as trunks, as well as in/out-routes. All I had left to do was delete my Google Motif entries and it worked perfectly! Thanks again, Ward!

I do not have an obi (thank god!) but i was curious in reading this what part of the Obi diverts the incoming call to the PBX and visa versa?
