3.1.1 Setting up your Technicolor Gateway as DSL Gateway
Introduction
This section helps you to connect the Technicolor Gateway to your service provider’s network.
Signal arriving at your home
The
Line
signal that arrives at your home consists the following components:
A
Phone
signal carrying the traffic for telephony.
A
DSL
signal carrying the Internet traffic.
DSL Gateways have a built-in solution to remove the
Phone
component. No additional devices are needed, you can
connect them directly to the
Line
.
Telephones do not have this capability, so here you have to use a filter or splitter to remove the
DSL
signal.
How does a filter/splitter look like
A splitter/filter is a box that typically has the following connectors:
A
Line
input
This connector must be connected to the input signal that needs to be filtered.
A
Phone/PSTN
output
This connector offers filtered output signal. It only contains the
Voice
component and can only be used for connecting
phones.
A
Modem/DSL
output (optional)
This connector offers unfiltered output. It contains both the
Phone
and
DSL
signal and can be used to connect your
Technicolor Gateway.
Connecting the cables
Proceed as follows:
1
Take the DSL cable. This is the grey cable that is included in your box.
