Reference Manual for the Model DG814 DSL Modem Internet Gateway

ADSL through other wall jacks

1.Plug the “LINE” connection from the included microfilter into the wall jack.

2.Connect the “DSL” jack of the microfilter to the ADSL port of your gateway using the telephone cable provided.

3.Connect the “PHONE” side of the microfilter to your telephone, using your existing telephone cable.

A telephone can be attached to the second RJ-11 jack on your gateway. However, a microfilter should be connected between the gateway and the telephone. Be careful to connect the microfilter according to its markings, with the “LINE” side plugged into the gateway and the “PHONE” side connected to your telephone.

If you have additional telephones, you will need to purchase additional microfilters and connect them between the telephones and the wall jack. A microfilter is required for each telephone on the line.

Note: Microfilters are required to isolate your ADSL signal from your telephone signal. If microfilters are not used, or if they are connected backward, you may notice a “ticking” noise on your telephone, and the performance of your ADSL line may be affected.
