MadFrankie Posted July 18, 2004 Share Posted July 18, 2004 When they come to install the line do they bring a splitter? If not, which I guess is the case, where can I get one from? Do lotus/tesco/carefoure do them? Cant be assed with going to pan tit.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lopburi3 Posted July 19, 2004 Share Posted July 19, 2004 There should be one splitter/filter included with the modem they sell you. They say more can be bought from TRUE office. I just ran phone line direct to modem/splitter and a return line to house phone lines so cover three phones with one filter. I have never seen in Tesco or such places. My local Lotus now keeps printer paper under lock and key! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadFrankie Posted July 19, 2004 Author Share Posted July 19, 2004 hmmz.. problem is I already have a 3rd partie router/modem.. Does the guy that comes to install the line have some in his van? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lopburi3 Posted July 19, 2004 Share Posted July 19, 2004 If you are talking the home service where you are limited to one computer and a choice of three USB modems all he would be involved with would be installing a routine phone line so kind of doubt it. I already had a line so can't answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firefoxx Posted July 19, 2004 Share Posted July 19, 2004 The tech doesn't give you anything. If you don't already have a splitter, you're out of luck. Go to IT Mall and get one, it's MUCH better than going to Pantip. Another thing is that you don't need to have the tech set up anything if you already have a router/modem. It's not hard.

MadFrankie Posted July 20, 2004 Author Share Posted July 20, 2004 all installed today, I ended up having to get my own splitter as I never got the modem off them.. Beats the old 56k, but there DNS leaves a lot to be desired, anyone got an alternate address? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
