The router could then be configured to relay incoming calls to a POTS

programmed to relay to another POTS line

I like it, so you could make your chargeable calls from home to your 2nd
home, which would in turn force the 2nd home to make its chargeable
calls to some fixed number, killing two birds with one stone ...

Better still, from your mobile (using inclusive minutes), bouncing the
calls to the landline in the 1st home at a time when they aren't charged.
No other fixed number needed then.



This is all getting a bit complicated! It seems to me that what I want
is the sort of thing that old people use for dialling out automatically
when they press a panic button. Then, as long as I could pre-define the
destination of the call, all I would need would be some way of remotely
"pressing the button". Could probably even use a timer to do it (say) at
midnight every Saturday night.
