Can someone please help me.
I've got a vigor router, I'd like to use the VOIP function on it because I have a small buisness. Can I set up extensions and use them like the router like a switchbox (receptionist will answer phone and transfer, employes will to call out to customers) and all without using a switchbox or a VOIP server, VOIP gateway or anything like that.

P.S. I don't mind if two people can't use the same line at the same time.

If you connect all of your phones individually to phone ports on the routers, and sign up to a VOIP service like Draytel (which may be completely free for what you are trying to do), then you can use all of the phones just like a private exchange that is connected to the public network and your receptionist can answer incoming calls and transfer them, and you can make outgoing calls from the extensions. Unlike with a traditional exchange every phone can be used at the same time if you get busy.
