Install Line Filters

Stand-alone Line Filter

Wall-mount Filter

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

For each device that shares the
DSL phone line:

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

2. Plug the lter into the
phone jack.

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

Wall-mount Filter

For a wall-mount phone, install a
wall-mount lter.

1. Remove the phone.

2. Connect the wall-mount lter
to the wall plate.

3. Reconnect the phone.
