One interesting FAQ here: You may be able to install a DSL-only line that eliminates all interference from other POTS equipment. They also list a couple of checks that you can do to see if it's coming from other equipment... that should be worth a try, and it's pretty easy.

Another nice link includes the question "how can my dsl line be good up to the house yet bad on the inside?"... sound familiar?


A quick search here shows that just turning the DSL modem off, waiting 5-10, and turning it back on can clean things up. I suspect your tech already tried that, though It lists a few other things as well.

As for where those lines are... they're way too damn close. In my house here (from a different builder than you, thank god), they're about 10 feet apart.

If everything's that tight, then you may be toast, and may the builder be the guest of honor at the next bonfire... You might try having the phones re-wired in the house... if he had a high school kid skip school to do it, odds are pretty good he didn't spend a lot of money on Cat-3 wire for the phone. You've probably got cheap telephone wire, and it's got little to no hope of protecting against that interference.

I'd push for having the builder pay Alltel to rewire everything properly. I would *NOT* let the builder handle it through whoever he wants... it'll probably just be some other kid from high school (since they're on vacation now). Insist it be either Alltel or a certified electrician that you approve of, and insist it be wired properly to all outlets in the house.

He made a pretty penny off of that house already... he can put a little back in to do it right.

Good luck.
Excellent reading, Tanks Man!
