Having multiple public IP addresses from your ISP wouldn't fix it. The data would still be going through th same pipe with the same priorities.
You probably need a router with QoS administration if you have multiple VOIP sessions going simultaneously and experience slowdowns or loss of service from it.
Depending upon what specific model router you've got, you may be able to install 3rd party firmware to enable QoS.
