I have a wireless adaptor connected to the CAT5 connector and it serves both functions. Now if I could just make my home alarm system monitoring work through the internet or wireless phone I could do away with my phone all together. I already got rid of the land line by purchasing vonage.

So if I dump the land line, the new DTV boxes with internet can register/update without a land line?

This is exactly MY point. If I dump my land line, then upgrade to DTV HD & they want the land line to register the new boxes, I've gotta go get another land line. This is no good.
