Have you checked to see if it was a DSL filter issue?

I use APC ups's. Always have. Always will.
Just bought 2 RS-series 1500VA BackUps (LCD). They were built in the
Philipines.
Seems to me that APS is still confused about their XS series and
their RS series. At least from all the past and present research I
have done.
One of my new RS series BackUps's (Philipines) PHONE filter
interfaces is broken. Odd because the RS series premium over the XS
series is the PHONE/DATA/? filter.
The phone jacks of the PHONE/DATA/? interface both appear to be RJ31/
RJ45 size. I suppose this is for commercial/business class PHONE/
DATA/? wiring. OK. SUX that I do NOT have same!! LOL!
If I try to plug in my normal RJ11 home-type PHONE plugs, I start
loosing my phone line/xdsl/internet connections. Hmmm.
This is proved because my phone line/xdxl/internet connection is now
running thru an RJ11 cable connector (small white plastic block with
an RJ11 female connector in each end; wired 1<>1).
Not likely I will attempt an RMA with newegg. Shipping costs!!!!
Other than this small ???, this new ups is full active and works
well................. really like the LCD display!
Besides, I can still swap it with an older RS-1500 (India) whose
PHONE/DATA/? interface connectors (logic) DO WORK! Even though my
research says this interface is NOT operable!
Confused I remain. But, I remain a loyal APC customer.
Just sharing recent observations............. :)
Might there be some RJ11-->RJ31/45 converters?
No. I have not looked yet. Never supposed I'd ever have to! LOL!
Best,
