Oh the fun with Google Voice!! Tips, tricks, and hints for getting the most out of Google Voice
Here’s what you can do with Sipgate: you make the number that Sipgate gives you one of the numbers that your Google Voice rings to. That way, all calls that come in on there are incoming. If you want to make an outgoing call, do not dial with the sipgate phone app or SIP phone, but instead, dial with the Google Voice app on your cell phone or use the Google Voice app at www.google.com/voice or the widget built into the Chrome browser.
If you don’t feel like going through all that jazz with Sipgate and you still want to make calls on your computer, you can simply use the Google Talk app that is built into Gmail, or you can set your Skype number to be your Google Voice number . You can do that step by step:
1. go to skype.com
2
. log in
3. click on Caller ID tab all the way to the left
4. click “Change number” and enter your GV number
5. wait for the txt message to arrive at you GV number
6. take the confirmation code in the txt message and enter it on the Skype website
You should be in business!! Anyway, that’s a few different tips that I have for getting the most out of your cell phone service as well as Google Voice.
