I had the phone company replace their old interface box with one that
separates the DSL line.  It did require my running another line into the
house but it was better than messing around with DSL filters inside the
house. Plus, it's now their responsibility to maintain their part of the DSL
connection. Phone company charged me one time fee of $75.
