Can I Use Ooma Number and Receive Landline Calls on Ooma?
Posted: Mon Dec 22, 2008 4:57 pm
Is it possible for my landline number and my new Ooma number to ring my Ooma devices??
I orginally set up my device to work with my landline; however, I don't want to pay excessive ATT charges for caller ID so it is now configured with an Ooma number (and a landline is plugged into the hub). I then read this advice in a different post:

"If you want to use your landline with the ooma system for backup purposes but avoid the landline provider caller ID costs, you can use the new personal numbers feature. Using this feature, you configure your ooma system as a landline unit (enabling the ability to send/receive calls on your landline) and use your existing ooma telephone number (as your main number for caller ID)."
Can the configuration described above allow both the landline and Ooma number to ring the Ooma devices?
Thanks!!
