2. If you have another device that you need to connect into the router,
use another Ethernet cable. Plug one end of an Ethernet cable from
the computer’s Ethernet port and then plug the other end into an
available Ethernet port in the router.
3. Plug one end of the telephone cable from the DSL Microfilter’s ADSL
port and then plug the other end into the router’s DSL port.
DSL Microfilter
Your phone line carries with it both phone calls and Internet signals.
When you are using the Internet, the connection produces high-
pitched tones that can affect your voice calls when using the phone.
Installing a DSL Microfilter separates the two signals and eliminates
the noise.
To setup a telephone on the DSL Microfilter:
a. Locate the phone jack in your house. b. Insert the DSL Microfilter into the phone jack.
c. Plug one end of the telephone cable from the DSL Microfilter’s TEL
port and then plug the other end into the telephone.
4. Connect the power adapter from the router’s 19V 1.89A DC port into
the power outlet.
