Can an dsl filter cause lag

[Tommyboy19]

I've got an dsl filter thats a little broke do I need to replace it does it effect broadband

If you are on fibre I would replace it with a VDSL filter, if not then a new ADSL filter will do.

 

Changing out filters regularly is good thing they are cheap and can wear out in time.

 

I have just seen your other post and you have a filter lying on top of a power extension.

 

1. It should be no where near a source of noise

 

2. It should be on your master socket in the phone connection (if you do not have a VDSL face plate fitted)

Yes you do have a VDSL filtered face plate.

 

The RJ11 that is running from the top filtered socket should go directly to your modem no need to have a filter on the end of that as that face plate has a filter built in.

 

Filtered master socket > Short 0.5m RJ11 > Modem in close proximity of the master socket > Ethernet to Netduma > Ethernet throughout the house to devices.
