NID, best way to check if it's you or them.
As to house wiring it's sure a lot easier to diagnose runs if you have a way to
separate them. "Home runs" from jacks back to a central block are a good start.

I forgot those letters too, and they still look "odd"... (grin)
Yes, When (if) you switch to FIOS, you can feed the house from
that "inside" jack.
Plus, for now, if it is snowing and the phones don't work,
looking in the basement is a lot easier...

Is there any point? [phone]
I think internal phone lines have 4 wires (2 lines).
Normally, I see these as Red, Green, Yellow, and Black.
No need to further confuse with various White w/stripe wires. I leave
this coding to the "experts." ATM!
Is there any good reason to have a central phone block/box inside the
house so I can troubleshoot separate lines inside the house?
Like between "ME" and the TSID?
