I had a similiar problem in the past. After much hair pulling, we
found that you can not cascade DELNIs. That is, don't put the
drop cable from a DELNI into a DELNI more than one level deep.

While this may not be your problem, it sounds similiar. If this is not
it, you may want to check cable lengths, cable types (ie rg58), etc.
