The above claim makes absolutely no sense to me. Firstly, in a
typical Australian installation, the ADSL modem's connection to the
phone line is unfiltered. Hence the modem is designed to tolerate
the 90VAC 20Hz ring signal.

Perhaps the modem's HP filter is internal,...

Exactly.

... to avoid the possibility of the end user forgetting to install it.

In Australia there is nothing to forget. AFAIK, we don't use central
splitters unless we have a back-to-base alarm system. Our telcos
supply self-installable ADSL kits which typically include one modem
and two phone filters.
