Non EE router

My new ee hub has a DECT signal coming from it regardless of whether there is a phone connected, My aim is to not use my ee hub in order to create a set up which has no DECT signal coming from it. I thought I could do this by buying a TP-Link Archer AX50 AX3000 Dual-Band Gigabit Wi-Fi 6 Wireless Network Router, and if I want to use a phone, to buy an ATA (Analogue telephone adaptor) which I can connect to an ethernet output on the Archer. Now I realise I can't plug the Archer I bought  into the broadband. I think it should work if I  buy a model which incorporates a modem too, eg tp link ac1200 router Archer Vr400. Does anyone know if this or any other modem+router would do what I want it to? Thanks.

@Johanstead Going to leave you in the hands of @XRaySpeX regarding what you are trying to do, he is keeping you right, and EE whoever told you what you just need to forget anything you where told it is RUBBISH.

EE give you a router, you plug it in it works, you plug a landline if you have the service from them it works, it's a no brainer.... Anything else you have to do all by yourself, and get it right from the get go, else creek/paddle without etc....

Landline if you have just now becomes a potential nightmare so you treat it very carefully or you can end up losing everything rapid!
