RE: [vox] dsl redux
I solved the filter issue at my last place and current place by having a
completely dedicated line to the DSL modem.
In the past on an Alcatel modem on PacBell lines, I was occasionally the
subject of ping floods. I would get packet loss and slow connection, but I
do not remember any time I lost a connection to that. Not to say it can't
happen, just additional information.
I currently use a 3com dsl router on Frontier (formerly Citizen's DSL).
<sigh> No competitors down here.

ok, perhaps.

maybe for you, but i've had an unfiltered phone for over a year without
DSL kicking out, and without a ton of line noise. no bad effects at
all for over a year...
