Custom Caller ID (from another phone)

[mdntblu]

What would be the correct way to use my landline phone number as my outgoing caller id until I decide I want to keep Voipo and port my landline number into it? It seems to me you can only use mobile number.

You can use any type of phone number as long as you're able to verify it. I use my Google Voice number as my outgoing caller ID. In VPanel, go to Beta -> Mobile. Type your landline number in the Mobile Number field and click the Add Mobile Number button. In the bottom section click the Click Here to Verify link and the system will call you and ask you to type in the verification code displayed in VPanel. After the number has been verified, it will appear in the Outbound Caller-ID drop-down list in Beta -> Misc. Just select it and click the Set Caller-ID button.

Just enter your land line where you would otherwise enter your mobile phone number (either Beta/Mobile or Beta/SMS Control, I can't remember which).
