I'm current using maxis provided router TP-Link Archer c5v ac1200 and i'm planning to get a new router, probably tp-link ax series router.

But there a problem. My maxis plan have a phone line, and its connected to the c5v router that have a rj11 port. If i changed a new router without rj11 port i cant use the phone.

My modem Huawei EchoLige HG8240H5 have a rj11 port and i noticed some unfi user connect their dect phone to the modem (same model), i tried but its not working the phone (only have beeping sound, tel indicator dint light even i pick up the phone). The phone only can work by connect the router, even i unplug the rj11 cable the voip indication still solid  (blinking if have incoming call or during call).

How to solve this problem if i change a new router? Is there any solution to make the phone work on modem?

This option may or may not work, but can give it a try if you already have the new router. First disable internet and wifi from the C5 then set to bridge mode. Connect the new router to BTU to setup as usual. Choose Maxis as the ISP profile. Then, find the vlan setting on the router, identify which lan port is configure for the Maxis voip.
Connect the router to the lan port designated for voip, and the other end of the lan cable connect to the C5 wan port. Restart everything and see if your phone line is working.
Need to trial and error for this method, as some said it work while some cannot get the phone line to work at all.

Another option is to have the C5 router connect to BTU, do vlan tagging 621 on your custom router and connect lan 4 of the C5 to wan port of the custom router.
