OBI202 - two lines not working
Inter:
It's getting weirder
I removed SP2 completely.
When I connect SP1 to Phone2 - it doesn't work
When I connect SP1 to Phone1 - I hear two dial tones! I can call but still here a "not connected dial tone" together with my talk.
how can I fix it?
Shale:
Try these things, any one of which might solve this if what I suspect turns out to be the problem:
1. Swap both phone connectors at the OBi to see if things, other than which phone is on which line, change. This one depends on the two phones being different. You tried this unsuccessfully.
2. See if you can locate an RJ-11 phone connection wire that only has the center two wires present That is sometimes called a 6P2C RJ cable. http://www.ebay.com/itm/7-ft-7-7ft-Silver-Telephone-Phone-Line-Cord-2-Conductor-RJ11C-6P2C-New-/110999073673 This one would take a longer time to get: http://www.ebay.com/itm/6P2C-RJ11-Phone-Cable-Phone-Line-Cord-3-3FT-/170542775162
If you have spares, you could slice open the cable carefully and preserve only the red and green pair or it could be the blue and blue+white pair as a temporary alternative. Now that I think of it, wasn't there a little phone cord packed with my OBi202? Was that a one pair cable, or was it 2 pairs? I have lost track of it.
3. put one of these into the Phone 1 jack: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Phone-Splitter-Straight-RJ11-6P4C-Male-to-2-RJ11-6P4C-Female-/140909346924
