Anyone try this Rogers One Number thing?

[flylife]

Blocking works - blocked 4166285255 the "Due to a economic crisis jerks"
Hopping a call off the softphone to the cell works using *11 (incurring min charges - but a neat trick)
Ring-all works, though it calls my phone about 6 second later than my desk (though cell is listed first)
- I like the timed feature, though not having a BB client is a dealbreaker, might need to disable service.
Inbound call notification worked on my home machine

FLAW
-the next softphone login does NOT provide the option to log-out the previous - so when I get home, I better have remembered to log out at work or inbound softphone calls will be unavailable. - FIX THIS.
-No option to register off that SIP proxy that was dug up - suppose this is direct competition to Rogers Home Phone but would be nice.
-NO OPTION TO DISABLE - what if I want to revert to my old call forward method - how do?

Really cool but don't want to sign up until I get some questions answered.

1. Forwarding minutes: If I ring all (Rogers cell, soft phone, landline and mobi cell) and I pick up on a non-Rogers line, am I charged? Do the minutes come out of my CF package?
2. VM: If I ring all, does my Rogers vm eventually kick in if none of my other lines don't?

My softphone screen randomly shows me a "you logged onto another computer therefore you will be automatically logged off"

but I didn't log onto another computer so I dont know what the hell its talking about.

[fruvous]

Yeah, I get that too. It's a known issue.

[Nuclearjack]

trying to snyc contacts tells me to download a mobile app which then asks me to turn off wifi and finally comes to a coming soon message.

Also texts from the computer to a virgin customer are not getting to the virgin customer.

there is what to do to get your SIP number

[fruvous]

cuts out after 1 min

[Shiryon]

[Mr Mystery]

Thanks.

Lol, exactly

[rockjock]

I guess this only works with Rogers Internet yeah? for me it just keeps losing connection on all my laptops so must be the sympatico Internet I have.

[rickyis911]

i know it cuts out you can give it to people you dont want to have your cell numver and it will ring to your pc

[lagunacid]

Right after I signed up, I'm getting duplicate txt messages. Is this happening to anyone else?

EDIT: But only if my laptop that has the One Number is off

I believe because they really calling your cell phone it uses your cell mins not call forwarding mins because it's not fowarding a call to you.

VM: whatever ringing phone picks up with VM first thats where the message is left. I increased all but my cell phone to 6 rings so the VM on my cell picks up before the others do.

I deliberately blocked the number of my other cell phone and I called from that line. I received the recording that said the customer I was calling was not available. Now I DO NOT have voicemail on my Rogers account, and so it is possible that it would have gone to voicemail if I had.

[rockjock]

it would not ring on my pc.. it would disconnect my computer from the internet lol well more bugs to iron out but a cool idea.
