Vonage Thank you for your help, Steve. With some persistence I finally got it working.
Thank you for your help, Steve. With some persistence I finally got it working. Since I was having problems with all the CAT5 runs terminating with an RJ45 connector and the PAP2 having the Phone 1 as an RJ11, I took the phone 1 connection, plugged it into the wall jack (they conventiently accept RJ45 or RJ11) and the associated Cat5 run I plugged into a coupler with the other end connected to one of the runs to another room in the house. It worked! So then I instead plugged a patch cable into the coupler and ran it back into the distribution panel along with run from the room I used to test and the phone still worked. This essentially isolated the wiring to the 110 punch as the issue from previous nights. So I cleaned up the cable I was using to the 110 punch and crimped an RJ45 end onto it (now basically having a cable with RJ11 to connect to the PAP2 and the RJ45 to connect to the panel) brought the PAP2 to the distribution panel & used my newly created cable and everything worked. Even ran another patch cable to the other panel (Circuit City installed two) and the phone works in rooms connected to the other panel. I am stoked I got it working.
Thanks for helping out so I was not chasing red herrings.
