Devices such as fax machines, caller ID boxes, or phones that share the same phone line as your DSL
account require a line filter, which prevents noise from disrupting the DSL signal on the phone line. Filters can
be in the form of a stand-alone line filter or a wall mount filter. A filter can also be plugged into a two-to-one
adapter if your SpeedStream DSL gateway will share the same phone jack with another device.
Stand-alone Line Filter
For each device that shares the DSL phone line:
1. Unplug the device’s co d f om the phone jack.
2. Plug the filte into the phone jack.
3. Plug the phone co d (o othe device co d)
into the filte .
Wall Mount Filter
For a wall mount phone, install a wall mount filter:
1. Remove the phone.
2. Connect the wall mount filte to the
wall plate.
3. Reconnect the phone.
Two-to-One Adapter
If your SpeedStream DSL gateway and another
device will share the same phone jack, install
a two-to-one adapter:
1. Plug adapte into the phone jack.
2. Plug a line filte into one of the sockets of
the two-to-one adapte . The othe socket will
be used to connect the DSL cable.
3. Plug the telephone (o othe device) co d into the line filte .
If you are using the USB port to install the gateway, you will need to provide your D-ROM drive letter
during software installation. To find the drive letter, double-click the
MMyy CCoommppuutteerr
icon on your desktop.
Look for the D icon and note the letter next to it. This letter is your D-ROM drive letter.
Your service provider may include a wall-mount filter, two-to-one adapter(s), line filter(s), and an
Ethernet adapter in your DSL kit. If you received any of these items, follow the instructions provided in
this guide for basic installation. If you need further assistance installing these items, please contact
your service provider.
The SpeedStream®DSL gateway may be connected to either an existing USB port or an Ethernet port. If you
choose to attach the SpeedStream®gateway via the Ethernet interface, it is only necessary to complete
the steps in Option A. Otherwise, proceed directly to Option B for USB installation.
Install Ethernet Adapter
You will need to install an Ethernet adapter if your computer does not already have one installed.
Refer to your Ethernet adapter manufacturer’s documentation for complete installation instructions.
