Dear Kenneth
Thank you so much for your prompt response
I've run a test on your OBi200 ... and everything looks fine
The device is added to your dashboard, firmware is up to date, and Google Voice is connected.
You should be able to make and receive calls by now.
Please confirm if you still need our assistance.

OK. It's working again. So why did it stop working for much of the day and what should I do if it happens again?
Ken: Jun 25, 2022, 9:18 AM
Failed just now. Rejected by service provider. Reason 603. Unbelievable.
Ken: Jun 25, 2022, 9:45 AM
I'm getting error 603 dialing a mobile number but I can receive incoming calls from that same number and I can call my home number, which is through a cable company, not a land line. My home cannot reach my Google Voice phone, which is attached to your OBi200.

I'm getting those same stupid error messages again today, Sunday June 26, 2022. Your OBi200 has fundamental intermittent failures.
Ken: Jun 26, 2022, 2:40 PM
I just requested a return of your OBi200 to Amazon. Approved by Amazon. I submitted comments to Amazon as to why, as described in this email thread.

Dear Kenneth
Thank you for the update
Regarding error message: Rejected by service provider. Reason 603
Could be on the Google Voice side or on our side
Sometimes just dialing the number 1 before the phone number resolves the issue
Other times you need to re-authenticate the connection between them or just configure the modem ports
Please do not hesitate to contact us if you need any further assistance
Ken: Jun 27, 2022, 6:34 PM
I returned it this morning.

_________________________
My feedback in the survey:
Your product OBi200 shipped with outdated firmware, which caused me to spend one hour on the phone just to get your product registered. Then it failed and I returned it. Your support was almost impossible to find and did not solve or resolve.
You are too convoluted and oblivious.

Dear Kenneth
Below you will find the message that I sent you yesterday
Also, you can just type the error message "Rejected by service provider. Reason 603" on the Google search bar and you will get a lot of information.

Yes, I read that yesterday but it hardly constitutes an answer by a tech company. Suggesting today that I do a Google search confirms that. I'll include this exchange in my next post on my blog. Do you want the link?

Dear Kenneth

it hardly constitutes an answer by a tech company.
