telephon e lin e, AD SL mi crof il ters are neede d for each tele ph one and device, such as answerin g mac hi ne, f ax ma chine, and caller ID display. Ad ditional splitte rs ma y be used to separat e tel ep hone lines for telephon e and the Route r.

Note: Do not connect the ADSL microfilter betwe en th e wal l jac k and the Router—thi s wil l prevent ADSL serv ic e f rom reaching the modem.

2. If y ou r t el ep hone service and ADSL service are on th e s am e
