Well I'm astounded by that too. And I thought I knew all about UK phone wiring - master sockets, ring capacitors and so on, but what on-earth does a "modem" cable do? And looking through my spares drawer, I seem to have a mix of 2-pin and 4-pin cables... And I've just put a 4-pin cable on my home system and it's working OK... So what gives?
