[English] DSL setup failure

vor 4 Jahren

I was using 1und1 16MB DSL before and had the option to upgrade to Telekom 250MB DSL.

Yesterday I followed the instruction to connect the new Speedport Smart 3 and completed the setup via QR code scanning (that was after 8am as suggested). At the beginning there was no internet connection and each time I tried to visit a website there's a Vodafone error 691 error message (attached). So I waited til after 9pm and there's still no connection (attached the router status and the DSL connection).

Would you guide me how to solve this?

Thanks!

@Gelöschter Nutzer Thanks for the help! I followed the instruction attached and I think I connected the right cable😆

Of course you did.

But someone else used a "wrong" cable to connect the TAE (Telekommunikations-Anschluss-Einheit) to the APL (Abschlusspunkt Linientechnik).

This "wrong" cable doesn't cause the current problem that you don't get an Internet connection, but once the current problem is fixed other problems may occur.

I see.

But should I contact Telekom for this? As this is only one of the two cables they provided (the other one is the fiber link).

Thanks!

Kann vielleicht jemand anderes erklären, welches Kabel gemeint ist? Mein "technisches" Englisch ist etwas eingerostet.

Dear Karsten,

Thanks for the reply.

No, I still don't have the connection... and I was actually planning to call Telekom to arrange a technical support.

If you could help me that would be great! Now I'm fully relying on my mobile data plan at home😅

Dear Karsten,

Today the engineer visited my flat and now I have connection 😁
He mentioned he adjusted something in the connection box outside the building if I understood correctly.

Thanks a lot for the help!
