D6200 WiFi DSL Modem Router
Note: Often the ADSL microfilter is included in the box with the wireless
modem router. If you purchased the WiFi DSL modem router in a
country where a microfilter is not included, you have to acquire the
ADSL microfilter separately.
One-Line ADSL Microfilter (Not Included)
Plug the ADSL microfilter into the wall outlet and plug your phone equipment into the jack
labeled Phone. The wireless modem router plugs d irectly into a separate ADSL line. Plugging
the wireless modem router into the phone jack blocks the Internet connection. If you do not
have a separate ADSL line for the router, the best thing to do is to use an ADSL microfilter
with a built-in splitter.

splitter. To use a one-line filt er with a sep arate sp litter, insert the splitter into the ph one outlet,
