I was wondering why my DL speeds went from 150 kB/s to about 30 kB/s

I've been working on the home and temporarily twisted the phone lines to get them working. I undid the twist and tied them properly. Back to 150 kB/s

Thankl you for your cookies.

How would twisting make a difference in non-optical cable?

Interference I guess

That's why twisted pair cable exists.

it's interference due to inductance. I'm curious how much twisting he means though, because one twist isn't going to do jack.
