Re: DSL not reaching modem

The RJ131X is just a special phone jack for the alarm
If the alarm is not used you may be able to just disconnect the phone cable that's connected to it

What I really need is a tone generator to test whether the line is connected to the jack, but I won't be able to borrow one for a week or two and I would like to get this working before then.
I been able to trace phone cables using the dial tone, handheld phone and a test cable

 It's a DSL line so I didn't think there would be a dial tone. In any case, I am able to plug in my modem to the jack which I believe simulates for DSL essentially what you are doing with dial tone for a voice line.

Since the existing jacks don't have the second line wired in, I am hoping to test various jacks to see if I have a life one, without having to physically wire in the second line to each jack.

I was able to borrow a tone generator at work, so I won't have to wait for my father-in-law to come into town. I'll find out tonight what I've got. It is a 13 year old typical Southern California track home (Pardee), so I am assuming each jack is spliced into a single common wire. Apparently the first jack I tried does not have all six wires brought out. Hopefully I have at least one jack that does.
