Nobody has answered the question about mutiple phones in the house. How can you have more than 1 phone throughout the house. Do I need to run more cables?
You can either hook up a line splitter to the Cisco, or possibly hook the Cisco up where your landline phone line comes into your house. Then every phone jack in your house would be hooked up to this. You may need a little experience w/ phone wiring to do this though.
I have a friend who did exactly this - apparently somewhere in the vonage documentation it says that this could cause damage to his phones, so he went out and got one of those surge protectors for phones. According to him he just plugged it in to a regular outlet and all of the other outlets in the house worked.
Also.. even though your phone may not have a dial tone (land line that is) you can still dial 911.... yes even with out a dial tone.
