The following are usually analog lines:
• Fax lines
• Lines used by modems or credit card readers
• Residential phone lines
If you are using a DSL line you should use a DSL filter
obtained from your DSL provider.

have to be connected to a phone line. However, if you add
funds frequently, we recommend you keep it connected to
an analog phone line.
