Yes, but it's a bit of work. You have to part to a mobile carrier, like Tmobile, then port again to Google Voice.

I’m new to this. Does this require ground phone line to be connected? Or are those two connectors for separate phone and fax? If I want phone and fax, do i need two separate google voice numbers?

Yes. You can block numbers on Google Voice.
You can also block them directly on the device, but that is more of a system administration chore. There is a ton of information in various forums on...

It has a good anti spam filter. Callers have to give their name before the call goes through. I think there may be call blocking, but I have never needed it

I don’t think you can port directly from Ooma to GV. I remember having to port to a pre-paid cell provider and then porting to GV.
And Ooma doesnt make it easy to port out. They require some...

If dipsh*+s would learn that email is generally the most insecure way to send any document short of publicly tweeting it's contents, then they'd understand why faxing is still used.

There are 3 things: 1> You can block numbers within GV using a web page, 2> a spam filter, and 3> A "call screening" option.
Using #2 and #3 generally negates the need for #1.

Not really. This one (202)shows up at $50-$60 fairly regularly. Given the recent issues with NewEgg, they're slow, or failed delivery, lacking customer service, I'd look elsewhere.
