With DSL one line shares voice and data.

_Every_ device plugged into your phone line except your DSL
modem needs an in-line filter.  The filter prevents the non-modem
from either changing the line impedance or putting high frequency
noise on the line, either of which will kill the DSL signal.

So if you plug an FXO device into the same line that also carries
DSL and don't use a filter the FXO device could very well kill
your DSL connection.  But it all depends, some times you can
skip the filters.  I did but then I plugged in one more analog
phone and broke DSL.  I installed a few in-line filters and now the
DSL works better.

If you did place a filter between the clipcom device and the rj11
wall jack then something else is going on
