Internet service (Digital Subscriber Line - DSL) through your telephone lines,
you must install a DSL lter between the telephone base and the telephone
wall jack. The lter will prevent noise and caller ID problems caused by DSL
interference. Please contact your DSL service provider for more information
about DSL lters.
