to all you phone co experts
1 wire DSL WORKS
I did it again
I was rewireing my inside line to remove a spliter
and add a extra jack box so each phone has its own box
as my wires are non standerd color code using a blue and white+ blue wire
I hooked up the red post to blue wire and the white+blue wire to the black post
s/b green I now know
the phone had no dial tone and THE DSL WORKED
so I removed the white+ blue wire from the black post
leaving the red-post hooked to the single blue wire
the phone had no dial tone and THE DSL STILL WORKED
HOOKED TO ONE SINGLE WIRE I could surf the web
rehooked the blue+white to the correct green post and now had dial tone and a working phone
SO A DSL only needs one wire
how or why I leave to you guys
but it does work
