        I'm lost.

        So the goal is provide 4 computers and 4 phones with service (phone and internet).

        Assuming you have a FreePBX system back at your main office, this is how I would do it.

        I'd install an EdgeRouter (you pick the flavor), use that to VPN back to the central office, then hang the phones off your office PBX and call it a day.

        I suppose you could install PFSense on the Vostro and use that as your firewall if you wanted, but why are you having a local FreePBX install? Are you planning on terminating SIP on the FreePBX install at the garage? If not, then you gain next to nothing having the FreePBX install be onsite.

          well it is a long story hhh
          for other offices (3 offices: 1 HQ and 2 branches), they have a CUCM hosted in our ISP, because the management still not relaying on me to do the whole telephony system for the group, because the telephony service is very crucial in our business (they have a small call center)
          returning to the new opening garage, i plan to install freeBPX only to have an IVR and have the ability to call from outside 4 telephone with only one PSTN line, employee or costumer will dial the external phone number, the call will hit the freePBX then an IVR will be launch : if you want to call the manager press 1 ........
          this is the utility of having a freePBX in the garage only to pay for one landline instead of paying 4 landline

            i mean these 4 ip phone in the garage will not be registered in our hosted IP PBX (for financial reason because we pay monthly for each extension) because the garage is considered something extra and not very important

                  How are you going to get analog phones talking to FreePBX? How are getting the POTS line into FreePBX? do you have a card that you will install into the FreePBX server, or a POTS to SIP gateway?

                      You mean for their hosted solution? You could buy any VoIP SIP phones for your own PBX.

                        yes i know for my own PBX i can register any sip device, i'm talking about the hosted PBX that our ISP host, we cannot register or do anything except by their permission and we pay monthly per extension and on top of that the ip phone should be cisco, these are the requirement of our monopoly government ISP, all of these expenses because the company don't trust me to do the telephony system for it .

                              Ask if you can do a project for say, 20 phones. Those people would have two phones on their desk - might be able to prove you can do it.

                                it is a good idea but i'm sure they will not accept it, they will tell me : we are not ready to play games with you hhhhh, they want something ready and safe 100 percent even if it cost a fortune !

                                  they are generous to pay anything to the ISP but no chance to pay even the necessary to me to do my job efficiently, all the time i have to manage myself to work with opensource and free solution,

                                    because if they pay for example a licence of something and didn't work as it should be, i will be in a difficult situation, but if it is free then i don't care

                                      play games with you? I don't see this as a game. It's an investment in you and their company. Possibly something that could provide your company with eventual substantial cost savings.

                                      But, if I recall correctly your government controls your telecom, and SIP is not available with phone numbers in your country, so maybe it won't be of any help for you.

                                        yes it can provide the company with eventual substantial cost savings, but what to do , for me it is equal because if i want to learn something i will learn it in my lab without implement it in the real world,

                                          i agree that when you see your work being implemented in the production environment you get happy and willing to do more, but if the management allows,
