Eir Fibre socket connections, need help

    I need help with Eir fibre socket (double one with phone and Internet)

    Accidentally I knocked the socket and cables connected inside got disconnected. No way of knowing now which cable goes where - I've got white orange and blue and I imagine it goes to white snap in place inside where it's 2x in & 2 out...

    Anybody knows which goes where? Btw technician won't be here until next week and I've got no internet :-(
    Thanks

    Line terminates on those points pictured. L1 and L2 are the main line which you want.

    You've got three wires or four? Orange Orange/White Blue Blue/White? In any case they're never reliably color coded.

    If you have a multimeter check for 48v DV over the pairs, whichever pair show that is the one you want. If you don't then just try each pair on L1,L2 until you get a dialtone.

    Try blue & blue white onto the main connections on the back of the socket. L1 and L2 not S1 and S2.

    Plug a phone into the rj11 socket and if you have dial tone, you should be back in business. put it back together and Your sorted
