| 1960 style wiring (and things on those phone line you don't know

|(recommendation) even from the FCC is for Cat3 wire or better.

In my area the local telcos used heavier gauge wire in the 1950's thru
early 1970's for home telco wiring than used today. Some of the real
old stuff from before the 1950's in my grandparents homes was twisted
pair.

My telco guru suggests you use CAT5 from the demarc box to your DSL
modem
