Trying to get the internet back in a room

in the front room is a telephone point inside is a cable with an orange green white and black single at this point the orange goes into one hole and the white another (there's no numbers) and the green and black have been chopped of. This cable come out of here and onto a grey box (outside) where it meets another 2 cables ones black with 6 singles and the others the same as the one in the front room so 4. Well the cable from the front room orange and white contect to the black cables orange and white. The cable to my room connects to the black and green of the black cable which means at my end I've got a cable with 4 singles, orange white green and black and a telephone socket with 6 terminal points. 2 lines of 3 down 1,2 3 on the left and up 4,5,6 on the right. I'm trying all sorts but nothing seems to be working

Wireless routers mate, they're they way forward.

your incoming pair will have 48 -50V DC on it. find that first. then this pair needs to be connected by whatever means to terminals 2 and 5 of your phone socket/s. not absolutely sure, but i think + goes to 5. ( it will work either polarity, but the correct polarity may be better)

Orange & White should be in terminals 2 & 5 on a standard installation.

Some info here

There is a bank of 6 terminals 3 on the left 3 on the right.....the centre left and the centre right terminals are all that is connected......so start at the master socket and match these terminals up in all sockets..master marked 2 & 5

White and orange in 2 and 5 arent working ?

 

[telectrix]

have you got your multimeter out and checked for the dc volts?

 

[1stfix2ndfix]

If I can get my head around all that above (!!! )...
It seems you've got a completly disconnected cable in your room.
I'm most probably wrong though! :smilielol5:

[1stfix2ndfix]

Ill have to get the multimeter out tomorrow and report back i would take a picture but i dont think it will help as the one I've got on my phone doesn't show much

 

[1stfix2ndfix]

Does it have to be a multi meter ive got something like this but its an ethos and its rubbish

 

[1stfix2ndfix]

Hang on ive just been up to my dads shed and found one. Haveing never used one its a bit daunting, well daunting might be a bit ott but there is loads of different setting to choose from

any help on how to use it and what to set it up on, pics would help but i cant take one atm

dc volts range. depending on the ranges, select 60V, 100V or thereabouts.
