Having a full-blown PBX at your home may be more than you need.  Great if you'd actually use it but probably a waste of money.  I would contact Flex from 2600.network (that is a web address, literally 2600.network).  Flex was the guy who led me on the VOIP.ms.  He runs an Asterisk server from which he has the 2600.network gateway.  Whatever option you choose to go with, I'd seriously recommend the brand of GrandStream, they are spectacular.  With the uncompressed data stream option it would even work for FAX or MODEM.

Cheers!
