SETTING UP A WIRELESS NETWORK?

With modern electronics it is rare to exceed the REN limit.

This is partly because the method of measuring REN is seriously flawed (from an engineering point of view).

Most problems come from misconfiguring things like filters and from a few rogue devices.

I thought you needed one filter per line.

i.e Filter in phone socket, modem and phone in filter any other devices add another filter to the phone socket and connect the original to the phone plug on the new filter.

Hm - depends on how you read that!

The minimum, as you say, is one filter per line. The filter is on the phone side and can be fitted to a NTE5 if that is your master socket.
If you don't do that then you need one of the little T-piece splitter/filters for each socket used for *voice*. But you shouldn't 'stack' the filters.

Ive had a few calls where people have exceeded this, simply removing one of their phones has corrected their issue. The main problem here is that alot of people dont use "modern electronics" and still use their stone age phones.
