Is this an "Answering Machine"
Hi Steve,
I'm considering restarting my use of HSPhone. It worked great, for a long time, as a simple whole-house "announce caller". I was using Vonage at the time and did not need HSPhone to be an answering machine. A couple of basic features I need
1. The ability to assign a phone number to a "caller group". Each "caller group" gets its own unique answering machine message.
2. The ability to have the caller press a key to direct their call to a specific voice mail box. ie..for Amy's mailbox, press 1, for Ken's mailbox press 2"
3. Announce the name of the inbound caller (if in the db) or announce the number if no name is available.
4. Summarily block specific numbers.
Because of my current hardware setup, I cannot easily install and tryout your package....I'd need to switch phone providers.
Last year I went to a virtual PBX (ringcentral) which has been adequate but, the linksys ATA provided by Ringcentral does not pass through to the HS pci modem a recognizable inbound signal. The ATA provided by Vonage worked perfectly.
