There is usually a box on the outside wall , its the demarcation point
between your hose wiring and the phone companies line.
In there is usually a test point that you can plug a phone into .On recent installations. Older ones just have a junction box with a
surge suppressor.
If it
works there the problem is in your house wiring.
I have actually never seen a domestic phone that required outside powerCordless phones always require outside power.
Not only cordless phones, but also phones that have features like a
Speakerphone and speed dial. I have a 2 line Lucent phone here with
those features that requires batteries.
. The phone is powered via the phone line .
If you are reversing pairs make sure you are reversing the correct line.It's usually the wires connected to the center 2 pins of the phone
jack.
