Step 1 > Install Line Filters

Devices such as fax machines, caller ID boxes, or phones or phones that share the same phone line as your DSL account require a line filter. The line filter prevents noise from disrupting the DSL signal on the phone line. Filters can be in the form of a stand-alone line filter or a wall-mount filter.

Stand-alone Line Filter

For each device that ahares the DSL phone line:

1. Unplug the device's cord from the phone jack.

2. Plug the filter into the phone jack.

3. Plug the phone cord (or other device cord) into the filter.

Wall-mount Filter

For a wall-mounted phone, use a wall-mount filter:

1. Remove the phone from the wall.
