If you're looking for a wireless network router, any one should work. I would say to avoid Netgear because of the low quality of their tech support, though.
However, you say you're looking for a "phone line wireless router". Do you mean that you want a wireless router to broadcast a telephone signal, rather than a network signal? If so, just go buy a cordless telephone. Or do you mean that you want a wireless network router that can also handle Internet phone service? If so, then most models should work.

The router should physically connect to one of the computers. A 108 Mbps wireless router with 108 Mbps wireless adapters on your other computers should be fine. The wireless adapters don't need to be from the same company as the router too.
The brand isn't too important because I've heard of people having problems with different brands of wireless routers. I have a D-Link model myself.

i agree with your other answer,the bt home hub is a good all round router modem and can run up to 10 devices,allthough i have found that any more than 3 you loose download speeds,but not many people use more than 3 devices these days except for offices ,and they use large ethernet hubs
i currently have 2 desktops( 1 athlon 3200+ and a pentium 4) running off the bt home hub and i have no problems ,the athlon is upstairs and the pentium downstairs
use a cat 5 ethernet lead to connect your p.c upstairs,and you may need a adapter for the hub
good luck

a D-link 634M has worked out well for me as far as range is concerned.. any mimo technology implementation would be advisable.
Your quite vague on "phone line" aspect.. chiefly you might want to consider a wifi voip phone if I understood you correctly.
Uniden has a wireless 5.8ghz phone and router built in .. you can see it in vonages webpage..
