Easy DSL signal detector

A signal detector, comprising:

• a connector;
• a display device;
• a processor;
• a non-transitory computer readable medium communicatively coupled to the processor, the non-transitory computer readable medium having stored thereon computer software comprising a set of instructions that, when executed by the processor, causes the signal detector to:
• after the connector of the signal detector has been inserted into a network service port, transmit a first tone over at least one signal wire communicatively coupled to the network service port, and determine whether a pilot tone is present on the at least one signal wire communicatively coupled to the network service port in response to the transmitted first tone, the pilot tone being indicative of network service being ready for provision via the at least one signal wire;
• and
• based on a determination that a pilot tone is present on at least one signal wire communicatively coupled to the network service port, cause the display device to indicate to a user that the network service port is ready to provide the network service, wherein the connector, the processor, the display device, and the non-transitory computer readable medium are integrated within a single, compact, handheld form factor of the signal detector;
• and
• a tone detection circuit, wherein the tone detection circuit is also integrated within the single, compact, handheld form factor of the signal detector;
• wherein determining whether the pilot tone is present on the at least one signal wire communicatively coupled to the network service port comprises:
• determining, using the tone detection circuit, whether a pilot tone is present on at least one signal wire communicatively coupled to the network service port;
• and
• based on a determination that a pilot tone is present on at least one signal wire communicatively coupled to the network service port, sending, using the tone detection circuit, a signal to the processor indicating that the pilot tone is present on the at least one signal wire,
• wherein the processor is integrated within the tone detection circuit.
