is there a way that i can answer calls and texts with other devices on my own wifi network when i have my cellphone on the same wifi network in the house.
i know it sound strange but often times it'd be nice to keep using the device i have near by instead of running to find my phone should the rare occasion of a text or call from someone happen.
Firstly i currently have verizon and i cant switch for over a year (or i'll have to pay back the year i got for "free") so other cell services are out of the question.
the devices in question are:
Pixel 7 currently active with phone number
Pixel 3a not active, using wifi only as a house remote
Cheepo lenovo tablet also using as remote and media stuffs
Pixel Tab when it comes out in addition or to replace lenovo tablet
Home network side of things
Linksys EA8500 i got a goodwill recently
Will get replaced with PC running PfSense
will add a single retired enterprise class AP, probably Ubiquiti
i'm working on getting some more wifi lights and a tv and such and i added a wireless charging module to the 3a so i can set it down places to charge but not have to physically plug it in so its a grab and go remote type device.
i feel like this could be a thing but i dont know where to start.
There is OneTalk on verizon but thats a business plan thing and only worked between phones and certain devices like yealink desk phones
could be a pipe dream though
