3-2 Install a filter on all other phones and phone devices

Why do I need a filter on all my other phones and phone devices?

Converting your regular phone line into a high-speed Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) can cause audible noise (high pitched tones and static) when you talk on the phone. You need to install a filter on every telephone or device that shares the same phone number as your DSL line to eliminate this noise.

connecting to your DSL modem.
