ADSL - yes the modem and phones are on the same line (number). Here's the link I read that seemed to imply you could wire it up like I have it and not need a filter- now you see why I wanted some input from the list! http://www.dslmodemsdirect.com/DSL%20Configuration/NoWireHomeRun.htm

For Adsl, the voice and dsl signals are combined and sent/received between the telco and the demarc (the outside box) on one physical circuit. From there, the dsl signal has to be filtered out of the signal for the "voice" devices (phone, fax, etc), or you will hear a hissing sound on them (that's the dsl signal). When you say "modem will not share the line with anything else", do you mean it will not share the telephone *number* with anything else? If the adsl is delivered to the demarc on the same telephone number as voice, then you will need a "whole house" filter on the voice side at the demarc (preferred), or you can use separate filters at each device. -- No virus found in this outgoing message.
