| 404970 | 2005-11-17 02:26:00 | Hey Guyz, I have a problem using SpeedTouch 330 ADSL Modem. When ever I connect the ADSL modem to the computer, my phone line gets distorted ( I mean, when ever I want to make a call, some noisy sounds are coming from my telephone) and when I remove the ADSL modem, the noise is finished. I have connected the converter to the main line, and from there one line goes to the modem and the other one goes to the telephone set. What could be the problem??? |

| 404972 | 2005-11-17 06:55:00 | Well sorry I was refering to the filter (when mentioning converter). The filter was included with the SpeedTouch 330 adsl modem kit. What else could be the problem?? |

| 404973 | 2005-11-17 07:00:00 | may I ask who your ISP is (interent service provider) | beama (111) | ||
| 404974 | 2005-11-17 07:27:00 | may I ask who your ISP is (interent service provider) What difference would that make? sfahad_yunas - Just to be certain. The filter should only be in series with the phone. Does your converter have two sockets, 1 filtered and one for the modem? |

| 404975 | 2005-11-17 08:12:00 | Have you tried using other filters, telephone cables? If you are living in a rural area, I suppose this type of interference could befall you? Cheers :) |

| 404976 | 2005-11-17 11:07:00 | Well I am in Pakistan. My ISP is BrainNet which is providing the DSL services in Collaboration with Microsoft network. Yeah, my converter has actually three sockets one input and two outputs. The input is for the main telephone line and the one of the output is for a telephone set and the other one is for the modem. But I want to tell you something. In my home, there is a telephone extension to every room. I have installed the filter to one of our home's extension. Does that sound like a problem???? |

| 404977 | 2005-11-17 11:10:00 | James what do you mean by other filters? Are there any other types of filters too??? | sfahad_yunas (9255) | ||
| 404978 | 2005-11-17 11:31:00 | Every phone or other device{fax, monitored alarm etc} plugged into the phone line needs to go through a filter. Except the modem/router, this should have a direct connection to the phone line, you may need to have a plug converter but no filter. Also the total amount of devices{phones etc} should be less than 5, otherwise you will need to get a phone person in to install a splitter where the phone line comes into your house. |

I have connected the converter to the main line, and from there one line goes to the modem and the other one goes to the telephone set. What could be the problem??? I was having exactly the same problem with an expensive router/modem. I switched to a cheap USB adsl modem and now have a perfectly clear phone. |
