Ahhh this could be my problem! I just checked which wires on the RJ11 cable had a voltage across them and it was the yellow and green (3 & 4?). From what someone posted the other day it's supposed to be Bumble Bee and Christmas Tree. I did have to get a technician out to fix my line when it was first installed because it was dead. Maybe he wired it up incorrectly or maybe they just do it different here in Ireland. I'll buy a crimping tool tomorrow and try out different combinations. Thx.

Note: some lines provide "ring" on a third wire. If that's the
case, need to bridge that wire to 3 or 4 (the middle pins in 123456).
I'm sorry I can't be more specific (or even describe why).. I'm just
a lay person who's interested but now curious .. Bumble wha ??

Line one should be red/green, and black/yel are sometimes used to remotely power devices or can be line #2. Also, red is ring, green is tip "right, red, ring" in telco parlance.

To get a functioning modem cable you need to have a cable that takes the outside two wires and crosses them to the inside two wires. We had hundreds of these made for us when we were selling computers for internet access. How this relates to the X100P is not something I know anything about but this information may at least confirm that Eircom's RJ11 wiring is 'an Irish solution to an Irish problem". :-) Good luck.
