Re: Installation guides

You can do many different modifiations to get that to work and yes you can modify the filter they sent you any way that you need to. My parents house had the older style lines and I did the mods and used CAT 3 wire from Radio Shack to run the line along with the filtered line to other locations in the house. Make sure you have your wire color codes down since that older wiring sometimes uses different colors.

I opened the jack and surprized to see that the rotary phone is not even connected to the jack. What i see is that the red and orange wires from the rotary phone are connected to white/whiteblue wire going down into the ground using cat 3 cable. While the jack is another 2wire just by itself. So, what's going on?

Is this phone on an outside wall? If so, it may run directly to the NID or protector. You may have to do some creative wiring inside the wall phone.

Same deal. I have tried disconnecting all devices and telephone line from the phone system and still it shows a solid green on dsl light, then next minute it goes red again. It seems to be resyncing the connection ever so often. I called sbc and they said give them a day because they probably are adjusting the connection

How long have you had DSL? Is this a recent install? SATASI

Ok, you are probably going thru the Ramp Up process, just leave your modem on....it usually take 10 days to find your optimal speed.....SATASI
