The problem with this kind of setup was you have to get rid of that fancy office phone on your desk that you paid a few hundred bucks for. For people who want VoIP but wish to keep their landline phone, Linksys has has came up with a cool new VoIP device call the Linksys Phone Adapter (PAP2). The New Linksys Phone Adapter, combined with a subscription to a specific VoIP service plan, turns your existing Internet connection into a high-quality phone line for placing and receiving phone calls.
