You might have a look at http://www.sipphone.com . They have free software
that lets you send and receive calls through their free service. They also
have adapters that connect regular telephones to internet for SIP
communications. Works pretty well for me.

This may not be what you're looking for, though. With my router, I can
have only one phone/adapter connected at a time. If I connect two, I can
make the other one ring, but no voice goes through. I understand some
routers will let you connect more than one sipphone.
