IMPORTANT: For countries that have phone jacks with RJ-11 connectors, make sure to only place
the microfilters between the phone and the wall jack and not between the Modem and the wall
jack or your DSL will not connect.
For countries that do not have phone jacks with RJ-11 connectors (e.g. France, Sweden,
Switzerland, United Kingdom, etc.), except for ISDN users, the microfilter has to be used between
the modem and the wall jack, because the microfilter will have the RJ-11 connector.
NOTE: You should always plug the Modem’s power adapter into a power strip
with surge protection.
