Yes can be done but you must have and ip pbx or a hosted service with that you can recive call and tranfer to other external numbers or extentions

That would be a function of the PBX or VOIP service it's connected to, not anything the phone could do.

Obviously porting would work, but you can also check available area codes on the Ooma site. [http://www.ooma.com/products/choose-number] Note the site has a place to check the portability of your current number as well as check for a given area code.

I take that to be asking if each fxs/phone port receive phone calls separately. The answer is yes. You can have two phone calls going at once, or conference call/put on hold on a 2-line phone. You could, if you wanted, use one phone line for yourself and run the other to your neighbor's house and send them a monthly phone bill, etc. The two lines have separate SIP logins and can have different phone numbers, or even different SIP/VOIP providers. The only thing you can't do is have radically different internet settings, like different IP's, one on a VPN and the other not, or something weird like that.

Yes. If you have configured a VOIP provider (or several), the device will let you choose what line/account you want to use for outbound calls. Unless you specify a default.Overall a well-designed product. Just be aware that it can't do Wifi; I had to move my Internet router to someplace next to a phone outlet in order to connect the base station.

Yes.... with one caveat..... your contacts must have been previously backed up to the Verizon website. If they were you can download your own contacts to your new phone.

You can definitely port numbers to VoIP services that support porting. Services such as Callcentric, Voip.ms and FutureNine all support porting landline and mobile numbers to their services.Today, Google Voice will only port mobile numbers to their service. Therefore, you will need to port your Vonage number to a mobile service and then port it to GV.See the user forum at the Obihai web site for more details on porting.

as long as it is tracfone minutes you can transfer them to another tracfone. I was able to do it, I called and spoke to a person who helped me set up my new phone, you can keep the same pho.# too.

You can. I use Groups to do this. You might want to look into setting up QoS for your VOIP.

This is a regular landline phone with two-lines capabilities, two headsets and some Bluetooth link features. The only way to transfer calls from a busy line (#1) to another free line (#2) or answer two calls simultaneously in the same line (leaving one in the hold) is if you have this digital service contracted with your local carrier.

You can keep any telephone number you have but you need to port it to a service provider. If you need more info email me directly.Paul

Yes, you should be able to transfer it. We replaced broken phones with this phone, on our Verizon plan. It is a good value, inexpensive and provides the basics of talk, text, and pictures. Plus, by buying it from Amazon, you are not extending your contract!

Yes you can transfer calls between handsets directly, or you can put the call on hold, dial another handset, announce the call, and have them press the line on hold. Great phone system in my opinion, with 2 things that could be better. The quality of the music on hold feature is terrible, and the display screens blank out if the phone is dropped, although the phone remains completely functional.

Yes you may,you may also keep your. Old number. Depending on the phone you may want to upgrade your plan so for data.

To transfer the call to another handset, I know you can simply press the green answer call button on the second handset and then hang up the first handset. I do it all the time. If you don't have access to the second handset, I don't think you can "page" it during a call. At least it isn't mentioned in the manual.

So if I want to keep my landline number, I can either port it to a pre-paid cell then to GoogleVoice. Does anyone know if you can port to any of these services and then to GV?

Can this forward to outside cell numbers? Yes, using a VoIP app in your smartphone, I can recommend this: Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.zoiper.android.app&hl=es-419 Iphone: https://itunes.apple.com/do/app/zoiper-sip-softphone-for-voip/id438949960?mt=8 Windows phone: http://www.windowsphone.com/en-us/store/app/zoiper/9cc16f11-b78b-437d-87ec-578fa1660737 I assume 2 trunk lines are needed? For model UCM6102 you need 2 trunk lines to interconnects calls from your PBX extensions to the external telephone network the telephone company in your city. Other model having 4/8/16 trunk lines. For more details I leave the link manufacturer: http://www.grandstream.com/index.php/products/ip-voice-telephony/ip-pbx-solutions/ucm61xx

Yes, Tracfone does allow your number to be transferred during the setup. If your previous phone was a Tracfone, you can also transfer your minutes as well. It's best to go through the Tracfone website to setup your phone, otherwise you will be stuck with an East Indian operator.
