I would like to know if a DSL/analogue phone filter/splitter (the small box with a DSL and phone socket that is usually supplied with the router when you buy a contract for BroadBand), be adapted to enable an analogue telephone to be used on a VOIP phone socket (i.e. the VOIP socket that's available on the back of my fibreoptic Broadband router)?
I was thinking that by replacing the ordinary BT - type phone jack on the splitter with an RJ11 jack, you could then plug that into the VOIP phone socket and then plug the analogue phone into the BT - type phone socket in the splitter.
May be it's a case of try it out, unless there's some good reason not to meddle with it in an attempt to save myself £40 or so buying a VOIP to analogue adapter.
Best wishes
Tim
