No phone port on modem router

At the risk of asking a stupid question, how do I hook up my landline phone to my xfinity cable through my new modem router? There aren't any phone ports on the thing.

    you need to buy C7100V for Phone support. It is voice enabled Modem Router.

     

    C6250 does NOT support XFINITY LAND LINE Phone. 

     

     

    • Thanks for suggestion. Are there any less expensive options with Netgesr equipment? My Internet speeds are only 150 so I don’t need anything terribly powerful - just reliable and able to reach across my 100 foot house from the corner. Thanks

        there is CM500V but it is Modem+Voice only. Not router/WIFI. you will need a CM500V + seperate router.
