Also this would connect to your home phone networking so you would have a place where all your phone connect too, then this would connect to that central location. 

 

I would also ask your ISP if this modem model is supported on there system. This modem is for cable ISPs with phone support thru the modem.

    This model is recommended by my cable company (Comcast) so OK there.  I have 250MBPS so OK there.  Specs sheet says second phone jack is for a second phone line so I can't use it.
