1 Run the provided telephone cable from the wall jack providing ADSL

service to the ADSL port on your ADSL Router. When inserting an ADSL
RJ-11 plug, be sure the tab on the plug clicks into position to ensure that
it is properly seated. If you are using splitterless ADSL service, add
low-pass filters between the ADSL wall jack and your telephones. (These
filters pass voice signals through but filter data signals out.)

2 Then:

If you are using a full-rate (G.dmt) connection, your service provider
will attach the outside ADSL line to a data/voice splitter. In this case
you can connect your phones and computer directly to the splitter as
shown below (

or

If you are using a splitterless (G.lite) connection, then your service
provider will attach the outside ADSL line directly to your phone
system. In this case you can connect your phones and computer
directly to the incoming ADSL line, but you will have to add low-pass
filters to your phones as shown below (
