At 6 am internet was acting up. A hard restart, turning modem off and on, didn't work. Had service tech out 6 times. By the time a service tech arrives problem has gone away. So that's when I decided I'll have to figure out problem. We no longer have landline, just internet service from Frontier.
About a year ago, I found a Sidekick T&N meter on the ground where my old phone line comes in at my other place up north. No longer use landline there. I've read up on how to use meter, which hasn't been too useful. Except for figuring which wire is the tip and ring when 45vdc is presence. The 45 vdc went away after a while.
This morning the DSL light was flashing. Computer says I have a bad connection in phone line. So I decided to eliminate the old 1968 wiring. The original interface box is at my garage door to house. There is evidence lightning got to the interface box. It was located there before there was a garage. Now new interface box is outside garage and new wire ran to old interface. So I twisted the tip and ring wires to a pair wires running to a box inside house next to garage door, only about 2 ft away. That removed all the old house wiring.
Then I wired phone wire directly to box inside house. This eliminated all wire connections inside house.
Not going to say I found the problem, IT'S WORKING. Listing to Willy's Roadhouse on TV. That will be a fast way to know when my DSL quits working. Keeping fingers crossed.
This is the old interface box inside garage.
This is the box inside house about 2 ft from old interface. I removed the end from old phone cable and wired tip and ring directly.
This is modem sitting on floor close by. All lights are working. Internet light flashes when something is connected to internet.
DSL light is not flashing indicating a good connection to central office. Hope this is my last post concerning DSL issues.

Today's Featured Article - Earthmaster Project Progress Just a little update on my Earthmaster......it's back from the dead! I pulled the head, and soaked the stuck valves with mystery oil overnight, re-installed the head, and bingo, the compression returned. But alas, my carb foiled me again, it would fire a second then flood out. After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga
