Hi, I have a netgear DG834v2 router which I use with my Orange 8mb unlimited bb. It is connected to the LAN of my PC and my flatmates PC is connected via a wireless connetion to the netgear router.
Am I able to add the livebox somewhere in the network so I can make use of the free voip calls?

Oh and I forgot to add I dont want to use my netgear router as a switch if possible.
Well the simplest option is to put the livebox in first, connect that to the netgear, turn off DHCP in the netgear so it acts as a switch. You can do it without but you need to make sure they're on two different address ranges and are setup to route through correctly. May be best to google for this sort of info.

Yeah I googled it and found quite a few articles which explained it, seems though that if I want to use the voip on the livebox for the free calls I have to have that in position 1 and directly connected to the telephone socket.
Do you know of any alternative devices that I could use instead of the livebox to get my free Orange voip calls? Just out of curiousity.
