Hello Reese,

What about the phone line, is it connected to the DSL modem? The the signal from the phone line to the DSL modem will decrease depending on the length.

Have you checked to see if the cable has not been broken even slightly when doing the cabling? Also, the ethernet cable was be able to withstand such a distance to maintain the signal.

I strongly suggest that you go to a specialized store to see if you have the correct quality cable for such a distance.

Let me know
