I have iinet transact vdsl2. It comes with a modem that has a pots outlet that you can plug your phone into if that's the way you want to go. They can port your Telstra landline number to it if you want.
For a number of years I previously had a gigaset DECT VOIP phone on internode naked ADSL. Unfortunately while iinet can port a landline number they can't port an internode VOIP number, even though they are all the same company or something. It's easy enough to reconfigure a VOIP phone to use the iinet VOIP service, so currently I have two VOIP numbers and four lines on my VOIP system.
