Are these inbound calls?

Are you sure that the PSTN has these four numbers in a rotary hunt 
group?  How are you sure?

Take the router out of the equation and connect regular telephones/butt 
set to the lines from the PSTN.

Call the first number.  Stay off-hook.  Call the first number again; 
does the second line ring?

If it does, then answer, and stay off-hook.  Make a third call to the 
first number.  Does the third line ring?  If it does, then answer, and 
stay off-hook.

Make a fourth call to the main number.  Does the fourth line ring?  If 
it does, then answer, and then hangup.

You've now verified that the PSTN side is working correctly, at least 
for the first number in the huntgroup.  You should be able to perform 
the same sequence for the remaining numbers from the PSTN.  Basically 
just confirming that the telco is doing the right thing.

Once you've got that confirmed, on the router we just do:

voice-port 0/0/0
connection plar xxxxxx (where xxxxxx is the number for the receptionist)

And btw, you need to be a little more patient; it was less than 24 hours 
between when you sent the first message and your followup.
