Inside A DSL Filter

Do you have ADSL high speed internet? have you ever wondered whats inside those filter things that hook between your phone and the wall jack? well this video will show you. I wasnt sure if AT&T wanted these back so i was careful while opening this one up it just has 4 snaps that you undo, i used a pocket knife and gently undid the snaps. this filter here is no good b/c my internet went out friday and i was bummed, no youtube and saturday i fixed it by putting on a spare filter that i had lying around and its great to have my internet back. and if AT&T sees this video please dont hate me for this i dont know if you want this filter back or not, if not then im prob gonna use it for one of my hacking projects and if any of the parts are still good ill use them. well I hope you enjoy this vid and please leave any questions in the comments thanks for watching.

From one of those filters i made an extension for the cable.I plug one cable to the side that says phone and the other cable to the side that says line so can have the double of the cable lenght.The part that had the "mail" part of the filter ive toke it of from the filter .Resuming i made a 2 cable connector with it.Its easy to do and handy when you dont have a cable with enough length.

I made a splitter out of this filter. I removed all of the caps and coils and then tied the 2 jacks together so now this is a splitter now.

I did mod it to a splitter I just need to test it on a phone but all the wires check out as hooked up properly. need to try it on a phone to make sure it works. I will get a vid of it up soon.

[robotwarsaintdead]

the 2 coils are ferrite torroids, the 2 green things are capacitors and i think teh orange thing is a capacitor but im not quite sure.

@PurpleSoprano

These split the DSL and phone signals separate so the DSL signals go to your computer and the phone signals go to your phone.

@guido69x

you can actually make a splitter out of one of these for your phone if you only have a jack with 1 outlet so you can plug a phone and satellite receiver for example into the same jack (my case but I bought a 2 outlet jack so I dont need to do that.)
