Personally, I don't think you need to call the phone provider or do any activation. I think you need to get an ethernet to phone jack adapter, and connect a base unit to the phone jack. I would not use the current unit that you have, but buy a Panasonic or AT&T system with a base unit and several cordless auxiliary units. I could be wrong, but I think it will work fine. My opinion.
