The wire that you buy at a local hardware store for extensions from your phone or computer modem to a wall jack is not twisted pair. it is a side-by-side wire known as silver satin.
Why do we run twisted pairs cables.... from NID to our Adsl MODEM ..????????
Answer is :: It is an extremely effective way to send high-speed signals down a cable because:
* Most electrical noise entering into and/or radiating from the cable can be eliminated.
* Cross-talk (signals leaking between wires in a cable) is minimized.
We all know that in BSNL has OVERHEAD cable from Street POle .......so running a TWISTED PAIR CABLE will helps a lot for our DSL connection.........
here are some PIC ..i hope everybody likes it....

Ask your local store for Cat-5 UTP cable ......with good quality .........
and Run it from your pole to your modem .............
Thanx

thanks cisco_tech for the cool advice
although i am afraid i bought the normal wire for connecting NID to the ADSL modem.
I did not specifically ask for CAT-5 UTP. Since like many others i thought that it is the lan cable.
Anyway, the connection seems to be running fine with a new cable( whatever be it's quality) which is without joints..
I'll switch over to a good quality twisted pair cable at the first possible
opportunity.
Thank Again !
