Plug your VOIP phone via ethernet into the router and do the same for all other PCS / Laptops.
As the Motorola Voice gateway aleady has a built in router another isn;t really needed....

The two spare ports can be used in the same way as either a hub or a router but instead of using the automatically assigned IP's just use manual ones, with differering subnets you can have two seperate networks both with internet access or without...
