I have a situation I need some guidance on.

Situation - I work from home and need a phone base in my home office so I can easily access voice mail and utilize a wireless headset. I don't have a phone jack in my office (dumb I know) and ATT says they cannot do it because they would have to go through two walls to install it (2 story house with router upstairs). I have an Apple Airport Express in my office that I use to extend my wireless connection.

Is there a phone solution that would allow me to use my current phone service with ATT, but have a base here in my office, perhaps attached to my Airport?

Thanks in advance for any help you may be able to provide.

Find someone else besides AT&T to do the wiring.

Do a search for local installers to run the cable. And while they are their, have them pull an Ethernet cable to your office too, so you don't have to rely on WiFi. It won't be much more expensive to do both.
