Step 3:

Install a Telephone Filter on Every Telephone Line

IMPORTANT: Install filters on every phone jack on your DSL line that
will be used for an analog device to prevent interference from the
digital signal provided by DSL service. A filter is required between all
phones, answering machines, fax machines, Caller ID units or analog
routers and the phone jack for the DSL line. Connect the phone line
connected to your router to the side of the filter labeled “ADSL HPN”
