Well, I may be hosed... I was just noticed today that my phone system wasn't accepting incoming calls. Tried restarting, tried checking that passwords were still correct, tried adding what Ward posted to my IPTABLES... no joy. Incoming calls on all 4 of my numbers are routed to the Google voicemail. I can still call out using the PBX, but that doesn't do me much good.

Is this the end? Where do we go from here? I'll have to port my numbers out of Google... who do you guys recommend as a provider?

Looks to be the case on incoming calls.

I just tested this. Incoming calls to my Google Voice number are still working... o_O So are outbound.

I wonder for how much longer, though.

We've tested incoming calls on close to a dozen DIDs in all areas of the United States including northeast, west coast, midwest, southwest, east coast, and deep south. Incoming calls fail on all of them. Certainly doesn't appear to be a typical outage.

Hey Ward, greetings from Columbia, SC. Incoming calls still going strong here. 803-728 is area code and prefix. I'm running the FreePBX distro with everything set up by Google Voice (Motif) module. You would think they would disable everyone at the same time if it was truly the end. I'm hoping the signs of life some of us are seeing means it's just a weird outage.

I think Google was having issues yesterday as I use it with Sprint who is integrated with GV to allow you to call from your GV number using your cellphone or change your Sprint number to a GV number and calls were not coming in there but going to voicemail at times yesterday.

I rarely use GV inbound-to-PIAF but after reading about this current skirmish I tested the 3 trunks that I have on my PogoMobile box.

All work just fine for inbound.

Edit to add: I'm in Chicago. The NPAs are 312 and 773.

*Update*

After reading some of the replies I checked my own numbers this morning... of the GV numbers I have, 3 of them are working again. I guess it was just some kind of outage? Those of you who reported failure, have you tried checking again today?
