But they said that if I really need a landline, they can have one fitted, so that I can use the phone during powercuts.

No info on how to arrange that though.
Is the phone plugged directly into the VM phone box?

Not sure if a Wireless Access point can operate in reverse or there is another device that does it. Cheap router might be an option. Would allow WiFi from your VM modem to provide an Ethernet connection for the phone adapter. I should imagine all sorts of devices are out there to solve these issues.
