TLDR; I have the DSL-AC68U and it is not detecting a DSL link.

Hi All,
My HH5 recently died and I got a replacement from BT but decided to get a new router anyway and got the DSL-AC68U.
However the router is not detecting that a DSL cable / link is connected.
I have tried multiple different settings including username, WAN mode, DSL mode everything I could find online but I am simply not getting a DSL link.
I have tested the router at a friends house, although the circumstances are different as they're using a different provider and are not on a Fibre Optic connection - they still got a DSL link almost right away.
At this point I'm kind of stuck as to what could be causing this behaviour and would appreciate any advice. Also if anyone else has this same router with BT Infinity 1, I'd like to know how it has been physically set up? I.e.
Wall Socket > Standard Microfilter (Phone line and DSL sockets) > DSL Cable > Router
I ask because the router also comes with a separate microfilter that is 3 DSL sockets, 1 on one side labelled "LINE" and two on the other labelled "PHONE" and "DSL".
Thank you,
