VOIP and wireless router bridging question

I've currently got a Linksys 802.11b router and was thinking of
getting VOIP. But... I wanted to have multiple phones in my house and
I'm not sure how to do this. I don't know how Cablevision implements
this as I haven't gotten that far (if they are anything like Vonage
they send you a VOIP enabled router) but I'm trying to think of a way
to have multiple wireless routers somehow on the same network so I can
have multiple phones (if this is even possible or necessary).
Has anyone encountered this issue and if so, how did they solve it?
thanks.
Big

Not all cable provider have VOIP service in your area just yet, so
maybe u are jumping the gun a little.

I believe currently the VOIP offerings are mainly WIRED. There is too
much interference on 802.11b (your computer just simply says, last
packet not received, retry, but your callers are not that patience).
*Maybe* 802.11a, but 5gig cordless are becoming available.

If your business is looking for quick free consulting,
please ignore my replies. I only wish to reply to other
engineers/administrators and home users who are stuck
and not interested to give your business free consulting.

Thank you.

Thanks for the info, I appreciate it. I'll have to dig deeper since
this seems a better solution anyway.
Cheers,
