[h3]The Easy Solution[/h3] If you have no wiring skills then you can use plug in filters. They look like these: [br][/br] [imgl]/photos/adsl/pluginfilter1.jpg[/imgl] [br][/br] [imgl]/photos/adsl/pluginfilter2.jpg[/imgl] [br][/br] [imgl]/photos/adsl/pluginfilter3.jpg[/imgl] [br][/br] The input side has a BT plug to connect to a phone socket. There are two outputs first a BT socket for phones and second an RJ11 socket for broadband ADSL devices. (a) if you only have one phone (or ONE master unit for one or more cordless phones) and and the ADSL device is near the master BT phone socket then you only need one filter. [br][/br] [imgl]/photos/adsl/SlaveSocketFilters6.gif[/imgl] [br][/br] If you have phone extension(s) you basically need one filter for each phone or fax etc, plugged into the extension socket. [blue]{well strictly speaking if an extension socket has ONLY an ADSL device plugged into it you can use a UK to USA (RJ11) phone adaptor (or an old dial-up modem lead) there instead, because the filtering action actually only affects the PHONE output of the filter. [i]The ADSL (RJ11) output of many such filters is simply direct wired to the input wires[/i]. However all-in-all it is probably best to use a filter here too, just in case, sometime in the far future someone in the household plugs a phone as well into that socket using a BT socket doubler}.[/blue][br][/br] [imgl]/photos/adsl/SlaveSocketFilters3_500.gif[/imgl] [mag]/photos/adsl/SlaveSocketFilters3.gif[/mag] Click to magnify [br][/br] If possible it is best to connect the ADSL device to the master socket as above, but it is usually possible to use any of the extensions for the ADSL device. [red]If you are having the extension points installed it is recommended that you ask the wiring technician to use twisted-pair wiring rather than the more common flat pair wire.[/red] Flat wiring picks up interference and [i]may[/i] prevent the broadband working or may reduce the maximum speed available on the broadband. Putting the ADSL device on an extension is like this:[br][/br] [imgl]/photos/adsl/SlaveSocketFilters2_500.gif[/imgl] [mag]/photos/adsl/SlaveSocketFilters2.gif[/mag] Click to magnify [br][/br] If this does not work out well and your ADSL device cannot be near the master socket, you may need to rewire your extensions using twisted pair wiring or install a twisted pair extension for the ADSL device like this:[br][/br] [imgl]/photos/adsl/SlaveSocketFilters1_500.gif[/imgl] [mag]/photos/adsl/SlaveSocketFilters1.gif[/mag] Click to magnify [br][/br] You can have two phones plugged into ONE filter if you use a phone doubler plugged into the filter. Do not do it the other way around i.e do not plug a filter into a doubler as one of the sockets will then not be filtered.[br][/br] [imgl]/photos/adsl/SlaveSocketFilters4_500.gif[/imgl] [mag]/photos/adsl/SlaveSocketFilters4.gif[/mag] Click to magnify [br][/br] Revised on 21 Sep 2006
