Hello

I had my adsl installed in 2003 (i think) a bt engineer came round and installed a newfaceplate next to the pc, and wired it up directly to the main socket where the phone line comes in downstairs in the room directly under the pc room.

And i just wondered do i need microfilters on the other phones around the house and the 2 sky boxes?

thanks

Heres the main socket, the wire running along the edge of the window skirt bit is the wire that goes upstairs to the pc room.

The phoneline coming out goes to a filter i just put on it, and that goes to the phone in that room

This is the box upstairs with dsl connection on the left which goes to my router, and sky wire on the right
 
Thanks for that, so, microfilters for all phone sockets? but how about the actual ADSL cable (the blue one on the bottom picture) ?
 
So not having filters will affect the phoneline but not adsl ? i dont reall understand.

Or does not having filters affect noise on the line or something
