Installed an isolated direct CAT 5 line directly from the DSL modem to the telephone junction box , no other devices on this line. While any speed increases were not detected, the occasional blinking of the DSL light on the modem is gone, hopefully will be more consistent service
......thanks for the suggestion

Your modem should have a maintenance port (usually 192.168.0.1 or 10.0.1.1) that can tell you the native DSL link speed. It will also probably have an "up time" that can be used to see if the link is reset. Does your voice service sound scratchy (interference) or clicks and pops? If voice isn't solid then data won't be either.
Glad to help!
