I’m setting up a FreePBX system for my house. My goal is to make it so that I can make and receive calls using a phone in the house.
When someone calls in, they are greeted with a voice menu (IVR in FreePBX terms) which simply asks them to press 1 to talk to a human. This is done to screen out telemarketers - most telemarketers dial your house by robot, and then connect a human to the other end of the line once you pick up and say “Hello.” This is usually not an instant process, which is why you usually have to say “hello” a few times. Therefore, the telemarketers usually miss the IVR, and are greeted with silence.
