Hello, Your DSL connection seems affected by noise. I’m checking if the phone wiring and its condition might be impacting your internet. I’ve included a photo of the jack inside your apartment—note that the right port is for the telephone socket. Are you using a twisted pair setup or older quad wires?

This situation is really chaotic... I recommend reaching out to the building management, a professional contractor, or your IPS to handle the issue. Trying to fix it yourself isn't a good plan.

I know it's not twisted pair. It doesn't match the color codes for RJ-11 or RJ-45. Years ago we were advised to keep it away from high voltage wires to prevent interference. The cables might generate EMI, showing up as static noise in the phone line. I can't be sure, but any EMI on network cables can lead to packet loss, which appears as slower speeds or connection drops. I'm not familiar with the analog signals used over traditional phone wiring, but it's possible it could create a similar issue.
