I watched a tech show on TV, and the host said most surges are very small, and they slowly fry your electronics, so there can be tiny surges from your wall power outlets, and phone outlets which slowly fry your tech.
It is better to protect stuff from surges than have surges slowly frying your tech.

Hmmm, never knew that. but I would think hooking them through the surge protectors would cause lag.

I think a home phone is analog, so there is no lag like digital stuff like computers.

I think people who subscribe to telephone, cable TV, and Internet from the same cable company will have more speed given to each device, so they don't lag. Telephone voice chat quality is 8 Kbit/s mono not very high like MP3 which is usually between 128-192 Kbit/s stereo, so telephone voice chat does not need very high speed connections if the telephone is digital and uses the internet instead of regular analog telephone which uses the square connectors from the old telephone company.
