sounds like an attempted rip-off by TPG saying you HAVE to have the DSL-10CF (the central filter or aka splitter) for $25 when the free ones work just fine...

My panasonic phones are fairly old, and TPG offer great rates and plans

actually i remember reading somewhere that if you got a specific type of line, you need a filter. otherwise you don't. they just recommend everyone use a filter so it saves them the hassle.

i've tried having the cordless plugged in without a filter and been surfing the net with no problems what so ever....
