Freebox Revolution fiber DTI box

The question has already been asked 100 times, but I can't distribute the fiber through my wall sockets from the DTI box.
The box works well when connecting an RJ45 cable directly from the box to a computer, for example. But when I try to go through the ports located in my electrical cabinet, nothing works.
Here are the photos of the cabinet; I would like to provide connectivity to the living room and a bedroom.
Thank you for your help.

Forget about the DTI; it was only used for telephony/ADSL. You need to remove the small black cables present and stop using them, then connect Ethernet cables between the box outputs and the upper sockets (2 out of the 5 for the living room and bedroom, but they are not labeled).
However, looking at your second photo, it would be good to make a detailed one from above. I'm afraid that the 5 sockets may not be wired correctly, only for telephony, not for Ethernet. Not all the wires seem to be connected. If that's the case, those sockets will need to be rewired, as well as the wall sockets.
Clearly, there are only 2 wires connected, the yellow and the orange, which is sufficient for telephony, but for Ethernet, all 8 are needed.
These patch panels and wall sockets need to be re-wired. For PTT298 type cable, follow the color/number correspondence.
or the same thing with the 568 A and B color codes that should be found on the sockets.
you will have to rewire all this, you came across a clueless electrician who only wired the yellow and orange pair to distribute the phone, not the ethernet network.
everything needs to be rewired at the patch panel and wall outlets like this:
PS,
indeed the question has been asked dozens of times in this forum and this answer provided just as many times.
PS bis,
I'm not fast enough :-)
Hello again,
The location of the wires doesn't matter much, what matters are the numbers and that they are the same on the wall socket and on the junction box side?
Because I don't have the same socket as in your diagram.
The important thing is the color of the wire and the number. The 4 that we see on this side are correct. Before closing the socket, the wires must be cut so that they do not interfere with the closure and do not protrude.
All the white filaments, is it a metal braid or plastic?
Normally the PTT298 is UTP only, so without any shielding.
I'm really wondering what those little hairs are; I hope it's nylon given how they are floating around everywhere.
At the same time, nylon for what purpose? It's intriguing, especially since they don't appear on the patch panel side.
Yet, it really looks like copper from a cable shield, which is surprising.
