Figure 1. Wall-Mounting Instructions
To maintain normal phone service, a special filter must be installed in the Network Interface Device or NID, the gray box mounted on the outside of your home that terminates your phone connection. This filter, sometimes called a splitter, splits the voice (phone) signal from the ADSL (data) signal.
Set-up and installation charges for ADSL service typically include the filter installation. If you are not sure that the filter is installed, contact your service provider.
Note:
Before continuing, you must know the type of service you are being provided. If you do not know your service type, contact your service provider for this information. Your service type is one of the following:
∙Bridged Service (RFC 1483) [with or without filtering]
∙Point To Point Service (PPP)
∙ATM-25 Service (ATMF)
The ADSL modem is available in various models. The model must support the type of service you are being provided. Table B lists the model numbers and the types of service supported. The model number is on the bottom of the modem.
