Just a heads up that we've tweaked PIAF-Purple installs to now provide turnkey Google Voice support. A new Google Voice FreePBX module by Marcus Brown now is included, and it takes less than 2 minutes to get everything set up. It works like this:
To receive Incoming Calls, create an Inbound Route using the DID of each Google Voice account you set up. Map the calls to the extension you set up. If you want to use CallerID Superfecta, first choose that option in FreePBX, click Default, and set the maint password to your FreePBX maint password. Then you can enable CID Superfecta in your extension setup.
SECURITY REMINDER: Use VERY SECURE extensions password AND lock down extension (using permit) to the IP address of your phone, e.g. 192.168.0.44/255.255.255.255
- Create a Google Voice account with Google in the usual way (see below).
- Install PIAF-Purple and open the FreePBX GUI with your browser.
- Choose Admin, Google Voice and add one (or more) GV accounts. username is just that, no @gmail.com! (see example below)
- Finally, log into your server as root and issue command: amportal restart
