Model: Archer AX1500

Hardware Version:

Firmware Version:

Hi all,

I was wondering if anyone could please help - I have NBN / HFC (Hybrid Fibre Coaxial) and bought the Archer AX1500 today. Turns out it doesn't have a phone port to connect my home phone into, is there a way to resolve this so I can use my home phone? Current setup is NBN Black Box to AX1500. I tried looking around but couldn't find a clear answer, most leads me to a Laptop USB to Ethernet converter

Thanks for your time & help.

TP Link does have modems that support phone service such as TD-VG3631. This one is for DSL connection.

Depending on the service you have, some VoIP systems connect using Ethernet such as Ooma. I have had an Ooma system for many years, I have the Ooma box and attach my own phone system to it and I am not using their handsets as I did not need them with my existing phone system.

I really can't give you a direct answer, but from my experience only MODEM's have a splitout from the ISP's signal to an Internet and phone plug.

There are modem/router combo's that can do that I guess as well voice.

I'm not even sure TP-Link makes any of these?

Wouldn't the Black Box be supplying the phone connection?
