      Plus if I implement a solution such as this, and she finally does upgrade to a smart phone; I can then setup said smart phone with a soft phone and she could also receive the calls from home.

      Just makes life a bit easier (assuming she freaking upgrades....)

      At some point she's not going to have the option. My fiance is upgrading this summer thank god. I'm going to upgrade this coming summer as well. I wanted to get an Unbuntu phone but google pixel looks pretty cool. Idk.

        ITunes account and all have Skype on them, FB messenger on them all etc. So people can call my one number get all my

        Apple has some way of transferring cellular calls to non cellular devices, I'm not sure there is a way to do that on Android. If there is, someone please enlighten me.

          I'm praying for the day her phone dies (and all flip phones are no longer supported)

                  Yes, meaning if someone where to call the "home phone" her phone would be in the ring group.

                  IE she could get the call.

                    I think you have a long time to wait. There is no reason I can think of that flip phones will ever be discontinued. Sure they can force the price increase on flip phone users, but actually preventing them from being on the network.. nah..

                      I've setup a FreePBX VM before (I'll have to double check if I still have it) but am curious if I can set this up.

                      That if someone calls the home phone that it would ring my laptop, her laptop, my tablet. If no answer on any of these forward to a voicemail box.

                      That's what I've had at home for many years. Makes things much easier. My dad is on the PBX now, as well.

                        I'm sure you could find a way to expedite the process. An accidental drop from a 10 story building or "accidentally" driving over the phone after it "accidentally" falls out of your pocket come to mind 😄

                        You know...stuff users do to get new laptops more quickly then their scheduled hardware cycle date. Lol
