Yes, only two one pair is used. The others are for redundancy, in the event that one pair breaks somewhere.

Telkom techies can use any pair, and as such there's no specific one. These two wires are connected to the DSU.
If you connection event remotely works, the connection is fine. It's usually corrosion.

you need to get the polarity right.its 40v DC about if I remember correct.Good luck.see if you cant get existing phoneline instalation and measure it with multimeter.some equipment has a switch where you can select weather inner or outer connection on plug is used.

I modified telephone line 5+ years ago with single strand 2 core cable.to extend it to my ADSL router.Just don't tell telkom.
