I am not quit understanding what your saying. My box is bigger then those and has spots for 2 separate phone lines. Yet only line one is hooked up now not line 2. I don't have the spare money to buy new boxes to mount outside like that.

Then you probably have the CAC-7600 type NID. It has "sled" modules, as shown by Wayjac. You can obtain a "sled" module which is a DSL splitter. Same site that I linked.

If you can't afford the price of a DSL splitter, there are people who have reported success by kluging a microfilter inside of the box. Again, Wayjac shows a screen shot of how to do it.

ok my box is not like that either. But from the new pictures i understand whats being talked about.

            /1 phone
        ----
       /    \DSL
----NID
       \
        ----phones

the above is how I am set up now. Unfortunately I am unable to isolate that phone sharing the dsl side.

I will be testing at the nid test jack in the next 30 minutes and will edit this post with the results.

Testing at nid info below

+000 days 00:05:13 E |DSL |HYBRID 2

Downstream Maxrate (Estimated): 7780
Upstream Maxrate (Estimated): 690

Bit tones with notches/missing bits:

bit(s) 43:58 185.4375 - 254.4375 KHz
bit(s) 114 491.625 - 495.9375 KHz

SN Margin (dB) 26.5 -
Line Attenuation (dB) 24.0 -
Loss of Signal 0 -
Loss of Frame 0 0
CRC Errors 1 2

now if i remove the phone on the dsl line and wire a filter at the nid should that bring my stats up like this or close to in in home. or will only a splitter do that. Also if i filter it at the box will that be good for all my in house phones or do i still need a filter at each location.
Lastly if i do this either way do i need the newer wires or can just the red green wires work.

2line_nid

A splitter or microfilter will result in line stats like you get from the nid test. Using a microfilter at the NID will eliminate the need for microfilters at all phone except the one near the modem.

You must isolate that phone near the modem.
A 2 port microfilter will do that.

Take a spare 2 port microfilter to the NID, check to see if both RJ11 plugs will attach to the microfilter.
Which pair of wires connects the computer room phone and modem.... red/green or yellow/black
