    I bought a wireless router today thinking I would finally get my laptop set up. As I began to set it up I realized it didn't have phone jacks need for my Vonage phone setup.

    I took it back to the store and looked for another, but none I could find had the phone jacks. Anyone else ever run into this problem and know of a good wireless router that also has the phone jacks?

    Thanks.

    I got the Linksys router with the phone jacks for Vonage, which I already have. Is there anything better than using a laptop while on the crapper? I think not.

    One problem...now my phone is not working. Everything is plugged in properly. I've restarted both the router and modem with no luck. I'm clueless. Any thoughts?

    I believe there are only 2 specific brands that have compatible phone jacks with Vonage. Not all work...

    The router I bought has Vonage on the box so that shouldn't be the issue.

    If you are using the internet while on the crapper, you might be addicted to the internet.

    Just a thought.
