I have recently changed my connection from BT Voyager 220V to Netgear wireless. On the 220v i could make internet calls using the standard phone connection in line1 at rear of unit. How do I continue to make internet calls with a standard phone when there is no such connection on the netgear router.

How are you all handle wiring for those cases where you might not be using wirleless. I am tempted to go all wireless, but for now I am trying to figure out if there is a seemless way for me to integrate category-5 throughout my house without a huge expense.

I have found this to be a very easy to configure router. It works with DSL, has 4 10/100 ports and has been very stable for me.

This is not a wireless router. For a wired job it does the job and it is relatively inexpensive.
