I presume you mean by buying an ATA to connect your existing DECT phone
into. But if you use your PC, you really ought to get a good headset
and thats going to costs you half as much as an ATA or a cheap IP phone,
so ...

Or by suggestion Draytel, do you mean that you have a Vigor router with a
phone socket on the back on it that you can plug your DECT phone into?

Give us more details, tell us what you really want and what you already
have, and maybe we can suggest something...
