Actually your information is slightly incorrect. Many providing companies don't
put a splitter in the line (which would be the best), rather, thay have self install
kits they send out. Depends on the service and the country you live in of course.
You have to check with the provider to see what they require as an install. You
need filters on every device except the DSL modem if you don't have a splitter installed.
Every DSL to date will need the voice range devices to be low pass filtered (blocks
the high frequencies that you don't want in your voice range devices) and stops interference
from voice devices to the DSL service, without a splitter installed on the incoming
line.
The faster the DSL the higher the frequency to a point and the harder it may be to
hear over the old normal handset (non-electronic/solidsate phones), but the devices
using the voice range (phones, 56k modems, fax machines) will need filters on them
or they will not work correctly, or at all IME. That is unless your provider has
installed a splitter at your location but that requires a dedicated line be installed
to your DSL modem...
IE, I have Verizon and Centurytel, and both have digital hash on the phones without
the filters installed (they normally don't install splitters as both use self install
kits). While the newer DSL service isn't as digitally "noisey" as was my old slower
service was, it is still significant without filters installed and stops the service
when someone picks up a handset.. Any install FAQ for DSL will verify my info..
