Calling 2nd Ooma number from 1st Ooma number.

Hello,

I recently purchased an Ooma Linx and added a second number to my Ooma account. I now have a Telo and a Linx.

When I call the second number, from the first number, I am taken to a message about completing my account and mailbox set up. It seems Ooma can tell that I am calling myself from my other number. All other calls to numbers that are not mine go through fine without any issues.

Is there any way to bypass this? I want to be able to call number 2, from number 1, and have it ring and go through like any other call.

Is there a way to do this? Thanks!

Side question: How do I assign which number belongs to which device? (Telo and Linx). I can't seem to figure it out in the Ooma portal.

Thank you friend, that worked.

I am still looking for a fix for the issue of calling myself.

When I call myself from number 1, two my second number, I get a message saying the number is unable to take calls right now. Is there any way to make it so that I can call myself from one Ooma number, to my other Ooma number, and talk to myself on the phone?

Thanks!

Thanks larryk.

I guess I will live with it, it's not a big deal.
