They caused? If you are using standard red/green/yellow/black non-twisted pair IW then it is your problem. If they come in and fix it they have every right to charge YOU time and materials. Telco is not responsible for your interior wiring and they are not responsible for determining if your wiring is suitable for your intended use. I would be almost willing to guarantee that the crosstalk is not occurring outside of your premesis. Frankly, if you don't know what you are doing, then you should consider having someone come in and help you. It will be cheaper than having telco do it. John Higdon | P. O.
