Switch to Community Fibre and use Premitel for voip?

Hi, I want to maintain a landline just for incoming calls from elderlies (no outgoing.)  This being so it's not worth paying for the Community Fibre calls-included voip package, and I wonder if it's possible to use an independent voip provider with Community Fibre, either by using the CF router, or another router?  Thank you.

I use Premitel and find their service quick and excellent. As with most proper VOIP you can just use an app on your smartphone to receive “landline” calls so you don’t even need a phone plugged in…

Yes, I am no community Fibre and last week ported the landline number I had with BT (which was already digital voice) to Voipfone (which plugs into the community Fibre eqiupment via an adapter). As expected and as I wanted BT also terminated the BT broadband I had on the same day which is fine as I had already taken on Community Fibre. Voipfone is £6 a month including 100 minutes of calls.

What adapter did you use (and where did you get it)?

I'm just in process of porting my number (not between those firms), may just use an app, but since I have. a bunch of DECT phones that still work, it might be useful to have an adapter.
