Will a regular phone jack plug work in this modem/router. I have att 6.0 speed dsl service. I am not familiar with ADSL....thanks

yes & no.if you have Phone service on the same wires you will need to run a DSL filter ( looks like a splitter) but one outlet is labeled phone & 1 is DSL this is because DSL is Digital & your phone is analog. Also your cable going from the Filter/Splitter should be labeled DATA they are usually Green in color although i have an old one that is Tan. they have less signal loss than a standard phone cable. if you do not have phone service on the Line skip the filter but use the data cable.

Here is a link to a Wikipedia explanation of ADSL. If you are asking if you plug in the router to your regular phone jack, the answer is "Yes". You use a splitter so that both your phone and router use the same jack and it is a good idea if that splitter is also a filter. Sometimes there can be static on the phone line and the filter prevents that. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ADSL Copy and paste this into your address bar.

Hi Susan Were you able to find a solution or product. I am having the same issue wherein my apartment has telephone jacks and I want to use them as internet lines. Thanks

Doug, you do not say which service provider you have and this is an AT&T; DSL MODEM/ROUTER, works on the AT&T; DSL service. This modem/router has given me great service throughout my home, so if you have AT&T; as an internet provider, yes it will work, if you have trouble installing it, call AT&T; and they will walk you through the installation and if you have a different internet provider, I am not sure if it will work but should for it is made by Netgear for AT&T; and Netgear should work with all service providers. You should contact Netgear or your provider and ask if it will work with your service.

This will not work with the standard smart phone connection jack. It is aUSB connection only.Too bad it was not designed that way

No, it does not hook up to a regular phone jack. It is a Voice Over Internet Protocal. Instead of a 4 pin wire it takes an 8 pin wire. The same as a 10/100 ethernet cable. It does have a plg for you to put a headset to it. I would recomend getting the power supply with it. Hope that helps

Yes it does. I'm using it right now with AT&T; DSL and at a much cheaper price than if you order it directly from AT&T.; This is one of the best modem/router combos that I have purchased, and I've used many over the years.

As previously written, since that would be a DSL situation (and I am on cable), I would have to guess that it would but I do not have experience with that. I have no use for the phone jack in my configuration.

I have mine plugged into a regular phone line. I do not have DSL, just crackle and static. This product did not seem to help fix that, as I was hoping it would. The static is either from the phone lines in the walls, or from my Panasonic DECT 6.0 cordless phone.

This cord did not work for the other way around for me--I have a modem with an ethernet connection and tried to connect it to a DSL phone connection. It didn't work.

You are correct. The exception is if your router has an HPNA coax connection. Many ATT Uverse modem/routers have this built in.

It should work with your AT&T DSL. My service is through Comcast and I have a modem that interfaces with Comcast. There is a network output on the back side of the modem with a RJ45 connector (looks like a phone plug but bigger) and I run a cat5 cable from the modem to the Trendnet router. As long as you have the RJ45 output plug on your modem, you should be good to go.

We have AT&T; and it works just fine. No additional service was required. Right now we have 3 phones running off one single phone jack. AT&T; told us if we have the modem wired directly to the main line then we can use all the different jacks in each office, then the phones can just plug into each individual jack.

This should protect phone line to modem. Should be no different than a jack by means of compatibility. As R. Darst said, I cannot confirm it does either, but would suspect it does.

It has been a few months, but I did not have any problem to speak of replacing the old ATT adsl modem with this one. Just make sure you match the modem settings.

Make sure you have adequate power supply. I did not receive one so I had to go to Radio Shack. Need cable from DSL/Broadboard green jack in modem to phone jack in wall. My "wall" is connection to AT&T; DSL only (no telephone). Need ethernet cable from one of yellow jacks on modem to ethernet jack on computer (desktop for me). To effectively get it to work you'll have to call AT&T; to get connected. They will talk you through it. It will take awhile. Maybe 30-45 minutes to do total set up.

I would recommend faster internet than DSL for online gaming, like cable internet. If your stuck with DSL like I am tho, this modem does work great. Its a much more stable connection than what AT&T sold me and works really good with my Asus RT-AC68U.

Yes, compatible with any ADSL internet provider. Excellent performance by Cisco XP2000. I've been using it since 2 months ago in Florida, USA under Century Link telephone company.
