I bought the Beetel M59 corded phone and initially tried connecting it to the secondary router via an RJ11 cable. It didn’t work, but when plugged into the main router’s FXS port, it functioned immediately. I’m curious if a female-to-RJ45 adapter would be necessary so the RJ11 line can connect through that adapter and then a LAN cable to the secondary router’s port.

It could be a VoIP setup or a direct connection if your internet comes through a traditional phone line. If it's the former (likely), the phone service will originate solely from their router. It's possible the second router is set up to handle VoIP over standard broadband, meaning only the primary router can manage it—adjusting settings on the second one may be necessary. The typical solution involves using a mobile DECT base station connected to the main router, with wireless DECT phones linked through it.

They told me the phone needs to go through the main router, so I purchased an RJ11 cable just like I did for the secondary router. Before doing that, I’ll look into the router’s configuration.
