If you are still happy with your POTS normal home phones, get an ATA like I suggested in the earlier message.  Mine is a 6-node cordless (pre-DEC) system with chargers/handsets all around the house. The base station plugs into the ATA and all the handsets work as expected, including caller ID.

https://www.amazon.com/Grandstream-GS-HT802-Analog-Telephone-Adapter/dp/B01JH7MYKA for $40 is what I'd get today.  The single-port version isn't much cheaper, but perhaps you still like to use fax?

VoIP.ms has configuration examples for many devices. Easy to follow if you don't want to become a telecom guru.
