Obi feed into DSL home feed line

<< < (2/2)

Rick:
Instead of spending all that money, all you need to do is ensure that the two wires carrying the DSL from outside feed the DSL outlet (where the modem is) and that you connect the other two wires to every other outlet, and disconnect the DSL outlet.  That isolates the DSL.

If you need both DSL and the other two wires where the modem is, simply install a two outlet jack where one is connected to the DSL wires and one is connected to the other two wires.

Shale:
I would tend toward changing the pair in the NID so that the L1, that now feeds everything becomes isolated. Then wire L2 pair 2 would be wired to the incoming wires that are now connected. Then use ONE adapter to feed the modem with the L2 output, and you will not need to use adapters on any of the other outlets.

I think I understand what you are saying Rick, thanks. Shale, I understand what you say to do, and I may have got a little crazy with my way of doing this, but I kind of like the idea of just doing the circuitry changes completely inside the house even though I could do it outside and change it back easily if necessary. I hate spending any money that isn’t needed, but the $5 is not a big deal. Thanks again all.

I did get this working not too long after my last post and it has worked fantastically. The only problem I have is the Google Voice's apparently unremoveable voice mail system. Thank you very much for your help and the idea you gave me Shale. Deleting my regular phone line has made my internet bill more manageable. Thanks again.
