Phone extensions in the house

Is there any way to link the Vonage system into the existing phone extensions in the house... or do I have to go out and buy a multi handset cordless system ???

In short, disconnect telephone line from outside (rid yourself of the telephone company line (dial-tone)).

Pull the Vonage box into a telephone outlet, and you have it.

Vonage takes the place of your old POTS line.

Dang! Houuser! You beat me to it!

Anyway, you can find more info on the thread entitled

There's a also website link there with more than enough detail.

I just moved to a brand new place and the NID is very different from the one I had in my old place. Now I have a "DataGuard GSSP gel-sealed station protector" within the NID box and I am not shure if I can just turn out the screw and unplug the wires. Anyone with an idea on how to remove this wiring?

Thanks

Can you just disconnect the NID wires where they come into the house? They HAVE to junction someplace if you have a multi-station setup..
