Can't you read?

I wonder if you can you rude individual. You will see it also states the micro filter only lets a small part of the frequency spectrum through; the part needed for voice/fax
I am sorry, but I am not letting you get away with lecturing me on filters, which is a subject I teach.

If you look at the circuit diagrams here, you will see the RJ11 socket is unfiltered http://www.adslnation.com/support/filters.php

If that were the case, you would end up with broadband data direct to the lughole.

To the phone side! You are returning to your obtuse attitude previously demonstrated many times, from which you have mercifully refrained for a decent period..

This sub-thread starts with your nonsense post, and nothing you have said or linked to supports that post.

I don't believe that statement.

No you would not, as the RJ11 is the socket you plug the ADSL modem into. The telephone goes into the filtered socket that does NOT carry any ADSL frequencies, i.e. the low pass side

Forum regulars should accept correction for what it is, an attempt to ensure that myths do not build up and that we as a community do not mislead other visitors.

The key is that if any of us are shown to be wrong we learn by this, and thus over time offer ever better advice.

You're missing a rather important "not" there Andrew .

Sorry, wrong poster!

That seems to say I should accept correction about something? If so, I'm confused. Is it in fact a reply to our professor?

You started this by disagreeing with Roberto's definitive statement. You even accept you may be wrong but refuse to listen to numerous respected posters telling you that you were wrong. You appear not to read and learn!
