Hey guys. So a buddy of mine has internet that is running off of the old 4 wire (quad) cable. The cable is outside, connected to a box. It is only the red and green wire that are connected. The cable then leads inside and connects to a jack. From the jack, his modem is plugged in.
Well, we wanted to give him a bit of an upgrade. After thinking on it I thought it would be as easy as connecting the blue and blue/white cable to the box and then routing the terminated end of the Ethernet cable to the modem and plugging it in. Apparently not because that didn't work.
What exactly am I missing here? I have never performed this little upgrade but I figured it would be pretty simple and so far, not so much.
The modem is a Netgear B90-755044
