Upcoming Features/Enhancements

One more suggestion about Call History.

For area codes that you know ...
Besides CNAM, perhaps include a State/City field?

Just seems like a bonus item, that adds some flair

Is the outgoing CID change immediate and does CNAM get transmitted as well? I would like to change it on the fly depending on who I call.

A brief description of each is as follows:

Mobile: Allows you to add mobile phone numbers in which they are authorized on your account to send SMS commands to our number in which will allow you to control your account.

Also gives you the ability to "Verify" a phone number, in which you will receive a call to the phone number you are verifying, and simply can do so by dialing the pin code you receive on the page to verify the phone number.

This then will allow you to automatically authenticate yourself into our VOIPo Connect number when you dial in and hit *.

This will also now place the verified phone number as an option to set as your outbound Caller-ID.

We've found a slight BUG in this new BETA feature which for was causing issues when making calls. Please retest this feature as this issue should now be resolved, if it is not for you if you could please make the call and private message me a call from + call to + date / time of the call and I will further look into this for you.

Thanks!

Brandon, either I'm not understanding you, or it's not working for me. I already had a couple of mobile numbers listed, but under "Verified" it said "No." So I deleted and recreated them. Am I supposed to get a call on that mobile phone? Am I supposed to see a page with a pin code? Neither is happening.

Also, for my secondary line, I cannot add a mobile phone number at all.

Thanks.

Click on "No" and you will get a call on that mobile phone and you will see the pin code to enter on answering the call.

Thanks. This is a little like finding Easter eggs.

This feature can also be used to make your Google Voice number as your caller-id. Part of my wish has been granted.

I would like to set the outgoing caller ID on my second line to transmit my primary number, however that does not seem to be an option.

Thank you.. it now works as expected. I now have only one thing left on my current wish list.. call hunt to my second line if the first is busy or a busy call forward.

Call hunt, or at least forward on busy would be great!
