My phone had been getting a lot of static in it so I thought it was just a problem with the line and would have to call Verizon. Before I did this I turned off the DSL Moden and Voila, clear as could be now. I have all the filters in place and didn't notice it being that bad until about a month ago, I always blamed it on the incoming callers phone. Is this typical with DSL? Is the Modem going bad? If I run a separate line for it out to where they connect outside would this help? Had cable modem but the DSL is cheaper and more dependable. Thanks for any help.
