wireless internet


Question Posted Thursday October 25 2007, 6:11 am

hi. we have wireless broadband internet because we were sorting out our laptop, but unfortunately, it didnt get fixed. well if people have wireless they know that you need a PC to connect the router to, then you can add any wireless devices. the wireless router is connected to the phone pin, which is also used by our phone. whenever we use the phone, the internet stops working, like dial-up. the page that comes up is the one that tells you to refresh. how can i stop this from happening?!

You need to put a DSL filter in all of the phone connections you are using. So you need to put one on your router connection and one on every phone in your house. The setup is like this:

wall
|
filter (NEW)
|
router
|
computer

wall
|
filter (NEW)
|
phone

You can find a DSL filter at any hardware store like the Home Depot or Lowe's. You probably won't find them at electronics stores like Best Buy. You can also find them online:

When you installed your wireless router, you probably misplaced the DSL filter your ISP gave you when they installed the service. If you find it you can use that one.
