If the DSL signal is strong, it doesn't matter how sloppy the in-house
telephone wiring is. If the DSL signal is marginal, it could make a
difference, in which case a whole-house filter at the point of entry
is the best solution, since it will isolate the house wiring from the
DSL segment. DSL signal frequencies go up to 1.1 MHz, so audio
techniques are sometimes not good enough.
