Home > Consumer Reviews > BT ADSL MF50 Broadband Microfilter

I ordered this via Addonsworld and it arrived within 3-4 days. It is a Microfilter with a tail and sockets for both a telephone cable and modem; the one I recieved was branded as made by BT which I have used to plug my phone into. As a broadband virgin I have little experience of what to expect from this product but three weeks in it seems to work fine and there is no extra noise on my telephone line. I purchased it to use with a Netgear DG834G 54Mbps Wireless ADSL2+ Modem Firewall Router with 4-port 10/100 switch; this came with its own microfilter in the box and so far I have had no connection or service problems (broadband via Plusnet).

We got 3 of these filters free with our AOL broadband connection. if they weren't free i would of sent them back, they seperate the 2 different lines fine there is no problem using the internet. The problem arises when u try to use the phone line, there is absolutly no filtering of the white noise so all the time that u are on the phone there is a fuzzy hissing sound in the background.

The above illustration is NOT the actual one you get. Other than that it is great.

We had a problems with our broadband - dropping andslow speeds - and bought a pair of these on the off-chance that they might improve things. Certainly wasn't holding my breath - but now 10 days after plugging in, they seem to have made a huge difference. Don't think internet has dropped at all since installed. Worth a go for the price if having similar problems

I have a connection with tiscali broadband and recently upgraded.I had one of the ADSL filters provided by them but the internet connection got diconnected everytime i rang/received a call on the phone.I used the BT ADSL MF50 filter and it seemed to have solved all these problems,so it is worth buying....
