Thanks Guys,

Leon, you are right, I had to rethink how Voip works and different from
PSTN. I ordered 2 Linksys SPA942 phones and will use 2 lines with IP PBX
from Vocalocity (www.vocalocity.com) . I will eventually need 3 lines but 2
will give me time to test.

Looking forward to getting the phones and a relief that I will not have to
install any further equipment or run any cabling. Time will tell but
hopefully it will work as advertised.

You can install a VOIP-PBX server.

When you install the VOIP-PBX, you can add external lines to connect
to your VOIP carriers network and bind these external line to one
local client/line. The you can get multiple phone numbers terminated
to one line.

In another way, you can configure these external lines to be shared
with local users, then all you 10 people can share these external
lines to make out group call.

I suggest you to try miniSipServer. It is a software based SIP server
for Microsoft windos platform. Maybe it can resolve your problem.
