I'm still registered. I rebooted to be sure.

Use 64.9.242.172 for outbound_proxy in /etc/asterisk/pjsip_custom.conf and it should be fine, at least for the time being. It's pretty obvious that Google Voice isn't suitable for production use. I'm only using it for my personal phone.

Fair enough. Not knowing the details of your service, it would probably save us both a lot of time if you asked your hosting provider support people for help on that.

As an operator of a full-service hosting server, isn't that the kind of thing you help your clients with?

If the $10/year registration fee is that big of a deal to you, simply register a domain name for free at dot.tk. Dot.tk is not only a free domain registrar, they also offer free DNS service. Not bad for free! I operate a full-service hosting server so I just create a CNAME subdomain record...

It's been a while since I've fooled with Virtualbox, but it seems to me that I had to change something in Windows also.

I haven't fooled with CentOS 7 for awhile now, mainly because C7 doesn't get along with the current fixes for Google Voice. But it should work as a PBX. As I understand it, IncrediblePBX security is based on iptables. My recollection is that FirewallD is either removed or stopped during the...

Ouch!

My experience has been that whether virtualization is KVM or OpenVZ the most important factor with regard to performance is whether the host is oversold. If your node is oversold, you're screwed. If your node isn't oversold, it mattereth not which virtualization you use. Since I haven't...

I look at it differently. We're not doing anything TO their service, it's only a question of what we do WITH their service. It's only a matter is which telephone device we use to access Google Voice. Regardless of how we access their service it doesn't have any effect on how Google Voice...

I've yet to receive any notification from HiFormance.

I wouldn't go that far. There's good service at a low price out there. In Disney movie terms, you have to kiss a lot of frogs to find a prince.

It's hit or miss when trying to find a good host. I've had my share of bad providers. Some years back I found a deal with chicagovps.net at lowendbox to use for my hosting server. Service has been terrific, and I'm locked-in at a good price. However about a year ago they got bought-out by...

Purely from a performance standpoint, openvz typically outperforms kvm. That assumes no oversold situations. But really, if they're oversold both are crap. I've heard a lot of arguments about dedicated vs shared memory but my experience has been that openvz is entirely satisfactory if it's...

While 512MB memory is probably plenty for a modest pbx, running with less than 1GB creates problems when doing updates. I don't generally fool with less than 2GB memory. That leaves room for growth as kernels and applications evolve.

My L.A. (standard) server is still up with good performance. I was just using it as a test platform.

In a way I'm happy to hear that. I've been busy with another issue the past few days but had a few people complain about break-up during phone conversations. I wasn't sure if it was them or me.

I hesitate to post the solution in public because if too many people do it Google will almost certainly cut us off again. But check your PMs.

I got one of their accounts in Chicago and suffered poor performance. I migrated to an L.A. server (Los Angeles, Standard) and enjoy terrific performance. Your mileage may vary...

Maybe so, but since the service was free they don't owe us anything. I can't complain because I got free telephone service for nearly 9 years.
