You call up you local telephone company and ask for a sip trunk...

I expect there to be some cost, but these companies that want a fortune for
a small amount of minutes are ridiculous. I'm okay with paying some amount
for unlimited, but not a small amount per minute.
Thank you,

I've played a bit with asterisk in the past along with similar products.
I'm not really all that familiar with VoIP solutions or configuration, but
if like to be. I want to start playing around with something to really
familiarize myself with it.
The problem is that all I've seen is solutions where I'd have to pay for
my SIP trunk or for some kind of service. Is it possible to get a fully
functional VoIP solution using basic hardware for nothing? I can host my
own SIP trunk I'm sure, but how do I get my phones to route to other
phones and my number coming in to route to my phone system? Am I in a
dream world, or is this actually possible?
Thank you,
