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.

You dont need a phone line to have your alarm company monitor the system either. When I dumped my home phone service, our alarm company installed a cell radio box that connects to the company. Cost me about $4.00 more a month for this service.
