Broadband PRoblem
December 15, 2008, 09:11:33 am
Up until last week - my home phone number could be used / dialled while broadband was in use. Now whenever the broadband router is connected the phone become engaged permantly. If I pick the phone up I just get silence - no dialing tone, and if I phone the number its engaged. Anyone got any ideas?

Tried a spare filter? (are they called micro filters? - you know they white thing you plug into the BT box...)

I agree! every phone connected to your circuit needs to be passed through a microfilter first.

All the phones are connected to micro-filters/ADSL filters as I thought. Any other ideas - I had spare ones and swapped them all for new ones.
