Hey guys, so I'm trying to step up my home network set up from the basic modem/router combo that I previously had with Frontier. My family is switching over to Spectrum in a few days and I am trying to iron out the issues with the system that I am trying to establish and I want to make sure I'm understanding everything correctly.
What my plan originally was, was to use a Netgear CM700 modem with a mesh network router set up. The issue with that is that my family wants to keep our landline phone service and the CM700 does not have a phone jack in the back to connect the landline to and so we were going to be forced to use the 16x4 channel Arris modem that Spectrum was planning to supply us for free. I just recently learned that I could possibly use a VoIP bypass in order to still use my initial configuration with a few modifications.
Would I then be correct in assuming that once the CM700 was installed, could I then run an Ethernet cable to a small switch and then connect one port to my new router and another to a VoIP adapter (like this one here) that I could plug the land line into?
