Does anyone know how to get VOIP to work with Dish Network DVR?
I have just signed up for VOIPforLife (voice over internet service life Vonage). I have a DSL line from Verizon. The VOIP is working great on the one phone I have plugged into the phone adapter. I didn’t realize until today that my DSL is carried throughout the house over the same lines that voice is. I went to the NID box and tried to isolate the inside wiring and of course lost the DSL.
I could buy a wireless set of phones to carry voice throughout the house, but I have a DIsh Network DVR (like TIVO) that needs a dedicated phone connection.
I have a couple of options, I could isolate the DSL from the rest of the house by splitting the phone jack by the phone adapter, but I’m not 100% sure that the VOIP provider is honest in saying that the jacks are parellel jacks.
Is there any way to provide a “wireless” phone jack for my DVR reciever? It seems like the latter would be the easiest way to put one phone jack in a different room.

You really need to get Verizon back out to your house and repair whatever you did in the box. I think in the long run that will cause the least amount of headaches.
