Nighthawk X4S VoIP issues
Hi,
I bought the X4S AC2600 in the hope of better WiFi over my Foxtel branded Netgear modem. The older modem had 2 inputs for VoIP phones but I can't seem to get my VoIP phone working with the Nighthawk. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Judging by the picture, it's a modem+router.
If your goal is better wireless-network coverage, then you might
leave your "my Foxtel branded Netgear modem[+router]" where it was, and
configure the R7800 as a wireless access point.Visit http://netgear.com/support , put in your (actual) model number,
and look for Documentation. Get the User Manual. Look for "Use the
Router as a WiFi Access Point".
