I suggest Amazon, since her service provider might not allow devices not their own.

I connected my old phones (Base unit which requires a hard wire signal and 4 satellites to a Magic Jack). Since I wanted the base unit in the kitchen and my router is in the study, I connected my Majic Jack into the router and then into the study phone Jack line which is part the house wiring. That takes the phone signal to my base unit which then connects to the satellite phones. Sounds complex but works great without need to buy new phones.
