All my lines are homeruns right back to the punch block and I checked and double checked for proper wiring. Everything looks good. Dave

What have you got from the punch block to the ACS?

Do like I said, confirm that disconnecting the w/or will eliminate the problem.

If I disconnect the w/or the phone will not work without power. I am going to double check my wires coming from the ACS. I used a 4-wire modular plug cut on one side and spliced the other side and then punched down onto block.

Your digital phone won't work, but a SLT or butt set will, Hal is trying to eliminate the data pair as your trouble source. This is a good idea.

I did do this with my butt set. I disconnected the orange(power)pair, and hooked up my butt set to the co line only. Buzz was still there. This is why I am so frustrated about this problem. It seems that I have tried everything and I still have that stupid buzz. aaaarrrrgh

You disconnected the w/o pair at the block. What about the line cord you have going to the port?

I used a 4-wire modular plug cut on one side and spliced the other side and then punched down onto block.

Not a good idea even if it does work. Better to press a plug onto a piece of 2pr and punch it down directly.

Dave, take a deep breath. The CO line only thing is confussing the crap out of me, maybe not others. If you take the station line out of the partner without the data lead do you have the noise? If so eliminate the partner, if you take the "CO" line incoming not going through the partner direct to the jack do you have the noise?

Yeah, me too!

Hal, I will redo my wires between the punch block and the ACS, you guilt me into it. I am not sure what you mean by "What about the line cord you have going to the port" please clarify and excuse my ignorance.

Justbill, I'm breathing nice and slow. This is one thing I am not sure I tried. Connecting directly from the interface box to the jack. However, since I brought the phone down to the basement and plugged it directly to the ACS and had no buzz, I figured the co line was clean. No?
