    HI, accidently knocked my Eircom Master socket and now having internet issues.:confused:

    no internet connection accept if connected directly into the test line within master socket.

    Phone line working OK!

    Master socket is new ADSL Eircom master socket with face plate

    at face plate there are 6 wires:
    2xwhite stripe on blue
    2xblue stripe on white
    1x white stripe on orange
    1x orange stripe on white

    2x blue stripe on white connected to L1
    2x white stripe on blue connected to L2
    R is not used and orange and white wires not connected.

    is there something wrong with this wiring?

    The telephone line is normally the blue pair, they are not polarity sensitive.
    The blue pair brings in the phone line and the dsl/internet.
    Make sure they are connected properly.
    If the DSL filter is included in that box it may have been damaged.
