Installing a telephone line filter or DSL filter

Any broadband Internet service that uses your telephone line might interfere with standard phones. The most common type of these services, DSL, often causes static on your telephone. Fortunately, an easy-to-install filter removes this static from the line. Technicians who install DSL service usually leave several filters for the customers; if you can’t find them, call your DSL provider or look in any electronics store.

Just plug the DSL filter into the telephone wall jack and then plug your phone’s base into the filter. Make a test call to make sure the noise is gone.
