A short on pair two can take down four or eight stations on a card. Pull the connector, use an adapter that brings out pair 1/2 out to an rj 14 to test with one phone.
Also, you can swap the upper card and lower card to verify that a card is at fault. Also, power off the system for a few minutes, then back on, we have had cards do a cmos "lockup" that will clear. Also some early cards had a design problem, that with time, will no longer support all eight dpits connected. And finally, it's possible to pop a card if someone connects a station port to a pc network card for period of time, the pulse transformer for that port will overheat and short. ("I thought it was a modem in the pc") A nic card resistance will not trip the protection circuit. some ideas, good luck, there are cards available from folks on the group. -larry / dallas Jim McAtee wrote: >We appear to have just lost jacks 1-8 on our KX-TD1232.
