Re: [ADSL] wiring/adsl/silver wire
Hi,
A few things ----
I take it your in Southern Ireland?
Who is your ISP and do they supply filters that connect
to your existing box ( From how you desribe it you have
an RJ11 connection)Could you plug this in? »www.compusa.com/products/product···p=BROWSE. But I'm sure the isp supply
what ever adaptor is required, these do koads of different ones »www.clarity.it/telecoms/adsl_hardware.htm
Finally, the phone lines run on 2 wires,so if you were to replace anything just keep the same colors connected,eg white and white and orange and blue(Don't think the *Silver* wire would make any difference)
But before you change anything, check why your line is failing, it could be the length of the line, come back if you require any further info.

| Thanks a lot, I haven't yet received the splitter/filter and modem from the isp yet. Should have it soon but my line is now failing. I know Eircom (they run the network here) use much more stringent tests than BT. My isp is BT but they can't touch the lines here and Eircom just won't repair lines that fail.
I have already replaced this cable but now I'm having serious doubts. What is the recommended cabling to use?? (its from the terminal to the master socket)
I'm gonna wait for the modem etc and test it out. If it won't sync I need some ideas as to what the correct cable would be??
Also, I have a sky minidish close to the line (2metres) and I'm wondering if this could cause interference? (I am thinking of having it moved anyway)
Cheers,
Stefan |
