Internet Connection Drops when making a Phone call

I recently upgraded to a new package for a faster bandwidth of 15Mb/s but ever since that, my connection drops when making a call from my cordless phone. I have a wired connection. However, from my landline phone, everything is OK. Its only when I make a call from my cordless phone, my connection drops. I spoke to my ISP, and they suggested to get a new splitter. But what type of splitter would handle bandwidth speeds of 15Mb/sec?

Is there any fix to this in the meantime before getting a splitter?
Thats what my ISP is suspecting, but who knows....

My setup is this:

My landline phone is hooked up to the splitters, but my cordless phone is in the other room.

My Internet connections drop when even pressing the button for the dial tone on the cordless phone or I get dropped connections even if receiving calls.

thx.

Before you go out an purchase new stuff if I understand your setup the wireless phone is not behind a filter at all. All non-DSL devices need to be behind a filter.

Option 1
Use inline filters at each non-DSL device

Option 2
Install a whole house POTS/DSL splitter.
