I set my dad up with an obihai about five months ago in order to get rid of the landline bill. He's found it works well through Google voice, but a couple times he's noticed that the line is dead so he just needs to restart the obi. This could also be due to the complex system it's running through though. He doesn't pay for home Internet either so I set up a free freedompop wifi hot spot, and then a router running ddwrt acts as a wifi receiver and converts the connection to ethernet so the obihai can be connected. Let me know if anyone has questions about the setup. It was a fun project and has worked amazingly well, plus he barely uses a landline so it seemed silly before this to be paying for it.
