I've recently ordered Broadband and will have my connection enabled on Monday. I ordered an external ADSL Modem/Router 4 Ethernet Port/USB with two microfilters.
My problem is the microfilters. I need one on every live phone connection in the house right? So one downstairs and one up stairs. The problem comes when the phone upstairs is located in my parents room and the PC that will be getting broadband is in my room. Currently there is an extension lead that runs into my room that has a phone and a 56K modem connected.
Would I need two microfilters? One in my parents room with the phone and extension connected and then one on the end of the extension (which is in my room) with a phone connected? That means I'll need one more microfilter (three in total incl. downstairs).
Im going to order an extra one if so. In the meantime I'll disconnect the phone in my parents room and just put the microfilter on the end of the extension lead (located in my room) with the phone connected, just to check whether the connection is working, would this work?
A lot of questions there I know!, but your help is greatly appreciated. Cheers guys.

I did think of that but the wire that goes into the ADSL part of the microfilter is not long enough, I only have the wire that came with the modem which is about a metre long?!? And that wire needs to stretch from the modem in my room to the live socket.

Any other info? I might just try and do it with the two microfilters and order a third if needs be and plug it into my extension cable? Hopefully problem solved. :$

Stick a microfilter on the main socket coming into the house and then take the extensions off from the microfilter. That's what I do. Hence I only have one.
