There's no question that the jack works for DSL but not for voice-- if I unplug the DSL at the jack in question, and plug in a phone, it doesn't work for the phone.
Anybody know, which colors are used for voice and which for DSL? That could prove it, using a multimeter as mikebw is saying. But that still doesn't help me, since I don't have easy access to the problem splice.
With the filter per jack DSL that you have, voice and DSL are on the same pair. In your case I would assume Red/Green (Line 1). That's why I was suggesting swapping to the Yellow/Black pair if you know where the other end of the wire is (not the splice), the place where it connects to the other jack, or directly to the incoming phone line.
