This is something you need to clarify with your ISP. Ask them directly as they might require the VoIP phone to be hooked up a certain way.

 

I say the above because I’ve seen where a Vonage box didn’t care as it was just another client on the network. But now that fiber gateways are becoming more popular, and ISPs are providing bundle packages (e.g. broadband, IPTV, VoIP), specific traffic might need to be routed through specific ports on the gateway itself.
