Using Asterisk In Your Home - The Uses
So now we have Asterisk set up for home use. What can we do with it now? If you happen to have mischevous teenage kids, you can log all your calls! Maybe you want to have a seperate line for those teens. The great thing about Asterisk is flexibility. You can do almost anything you can think of.
Here are a couple ideas for you.
- Call logging
- Call forwarding
- Virtual phone lines
- Call recording
- Conferences
- Cheap phone service
- Voicemail
- Wakeup calls
- Reminder calls
There are a thousand and three other things to do with it, but that’s just the first couple things that come off the top of my head.
P.S. I want to hear what you guys use Asterisk for in your house. Post a comment with your ideas.

I’ve heard of it all being done. But AAH has been nothing but a headache to me. However quite a few people I’ve met swear by it.
