POTS Splitter
A phone line can carry phone call and Internet signals. When you enable the phone line for high
speed Internet, the connection produces high-pitched tones when using the phone. Installing a
Plain Old Telephone Service (POTS) splitter separates the two signals and eliminates the noise.
To setup the telephone POTS Splitter:
1. Locate the phone jack in your house.
2. Insert the POTS Splitter into the phone jack.
3. Plug one end of the telephone cable from the POTS Splitter’s TEL port and then plug the other
end into the telephone.
2. Plug one end of the Ethernet cable from the router’s ETHERNET port and then plug the other
end into a broadband router’s WAN port.
3. Connect the computer into an available LAN Ethernet port in the broadband router. In this
setup, the router merely acts as a dialer for the broadband router. Broadband routers, by itself,
do not have the capability to connect to an ADSL service because it does not have a DSL port.
To connect to the Internet, use the connection settings of the broadband router.
