Phone not working after infinity installation

I have just moved my phone and broadband from Sky to Bt and the engineer called this morning to complete the installation. I have 2 phone sockets. When I had broadband originally installed it was before the days of filters so it required a BT engineer visit. As my computer was upstairs the engineer 'back wired' the sockets (apologies if I have the terminology wrong) so the adsl faceplate was fitted to the upstairs wired extension. Today, the Openreach engineer was initially puzzled but said he would be able to install the Infinity faceplate on the upstairs extension as originally fitted. He checked the line was ok, checked the broadband connection and put the faceplate back on the 2 sockets. After he left I tried to make a call via the downstairs socket without success and I assumed that the phone line had not yet been changed back to BT. This afternoon I received an email from BT advising that my phone was now active but the downstairs socket will not work. I am able to make and receive calls on the upstairs extension. I have just spent 40 minutes on the phone to BT, explaining the problem to 4 different people. Each BT employee advised that it would cost £130 for an engineer to revisit my house to correct the fault that they had somehow caused! To say I'm frustrated is an understatement. Has anyone any suggestions how I can resolve the problem. All 4 BT employees did not really understand the problem. I would appreciate any help.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

You cannot use a phone connection for broadband when on Infinity. The only connection that can be used is that which comes from the home hub 3, which is near the Openreach modem.
You have to use wireless, run an Ethernet cable, or use Powerline adapters.
You phone should work if it is plugged into the botton socket of the new Infinity master socket.

  • Phone not working after Infinity upgrade

    I ordered Infinity back at the end of October 2013 and have finally had it installed today after several false starts.  The problem has been "faults on the line" which have been discovered by engineers each time they came to set it up.  The engineer came today and announced there were no faults on the line and he set about installing Infinity.
    Having announced that all was well he made a phone call to an automated line testing service and then declared all was well and off he went.
    Shortly afterwards I needed to make a call and discovered that there was no ring tone.  When people tried to call me the phone rang and kept on ringing (in a muted kind of way) when i picked up the phone.  The caller number displays and the calls go to 1571 (though we can't call that service).  Meanwhile the internet appears to be fine.
    I have performed all the tests possible including using an old wired phone in the lower socket.  There is never a dial tone.
    As we don't get a mobile signal here I spent nearly an hour in a field where I could get a signal trying to get through to BT helpdesk on a mobile without any joy. I have emailed several times and also tried the online chat function - after queuing for 40 minutes I was "requeued" by the operator whose only response was to paste some link to troubleshooting video I might want to watch.
    I logged a fault on bt.com/faults but when I went to check on the status of the fault it seemed to be saying that they had checked the line and could find no fault and recommended that I phone the helpline(!).  If only I could.
    Looking through the boards it seems this has happened to others before.    
    If I can't use the phone I will have to travel 160 miles roud trip to my office as I need the phone for my work.
    Has anyone any ideas about how I can get this sorted out?

    The engineer came and after about an hour the phone was working again.  Apparently the fault was unrelated to the Infinity installation and was an unfortunate co-incidence.  It seems there is a fault with "pressurised cables from the exchange" whihc developed shortly after the infinity engineer attended yesterday.
    The engineer today swapped our wires over in the street cabinet and now the phone and broadband are both working.
    Thanks very much for taking the time to reply to my issue.

  • Phone not working after Infinity setup

    I was using BT phone & broadband without any problem till now. Today an engineer from BT came and setup BT infinity. Immediately after that I am not able to make any calls and not able to receive any calls.
    Phone has dial tone, but soon after dialing any number, I can hear multiple voice and cant make call. When an incoming call comes, the phone rings, but not able to get connected. Please Help..... 

    report it to BT Faults on 151 there sounds like a wiring fault either in your home or at the cabinet

    During installation, an user casuser is created with certian security settings and if those are modified\removed, DM will not start.
    Following message will be seen in /log/syslog.log
    Daemon manager anonymous user has not been set up: 00000775
    To solve the issue, run resetcasuser.exe located under /setup.support  to  recreate the settings.
    Make sure casuser account is not locked out. Make sure casuser is a member of casusers group and is set to "password never expires".
    Additionally you can try to make casuser a member of adiministrators group.

  • Some Java applets do not work after silent installation, solved by toggling "Enable Java content in the browser" - Why?

    We have about 1,800 workstations running Windows 7 (both 32-bit and 64-bit) running various versions of the Java JRE from 6 update 32 through 7 update 51.  Most are on 6 update 45.  We would like to standardize on Java 7 update 51 (32-bit) and get everyone updated to that version for security reasons.
    For the past two weeks, we have been having trouble with our installation pre-pilot.  What we are seeing is that our procedure successfully closes any open Internet Explorer windows and Java-related processes, uninstalls all old versions of the Java JRE, and then claims to have successfully installed Java 7 update 51.  The Java Control panel works.  We can even take Internet Explorer to Verify Java Version or Java Tester - What Version of Java Are You Running? and confirm that the Java applets on those sites are loading (though the latter only works after adding the site to the exceptions site list); however, when testers try to access our Kronos Workforce Central 6.3.10 system, the Java applets used by that system do not load.
    We have tried the following things, none of which worked:
    Clear Internet Explorer browser cache and cookies.
    Clear the local Java cache.
    Reboot the computer.
    Reset Internet Explorer settings, including personal settings.
    The one thing which does work is going into the Java Control Panel, going to the Security tab, unchecking "Enable Java content in the browser", pressing Apply, pressing OK on the pop-up window, checking the "Enable Java content in the browser" box again, pressing OK, pressing OK on the pop-up window, and then restarting Internet Explorer.  It is only after this point that all Java applets, including the ones used by Kronos Workforce Central 6.3.10, work.
    What I need to know is how I can automate the procedure of reinitializing the "Enable Java content in the browser" checkbox after installation or am I doing something wrong or missing a step in the automated installation that is causing this to happen?

    It turns out that this is actually a problem with Kronos Workforce Central.  We had the "site.java.plugin.CLSID.familyVersion" setting in that application set to "clsid:CAFEEFAC-0016-0000-FFFF-ABCDEFFEDCBA", which is the Java CLSID for Java 6.  After updating this value to "clsid:8AD9C840-044E-11D1-B3E9-00805F499D93" (the Java universal CLSID), this problem did not occur upon the automatic upgrade of Java.
    We have both Java 6 and Java 7 in our environment, and did during our Kronos implementation, so I don't know why we were using the Java 6 CLSID in the first place.
    Case closed!

  • Satellite L450D Webcam not working after new installation without recovery

    Hi there,
    as posted in the thread title I have a problem with the integrated webcam of a customer notebook. Two days ago the operating system of this laptop was damaged by a virus and needed to be re-installed. I tried to install it with the recovery partition, which did not work. After it I tried to re-built it with the dvd I burned from the recovery partition with the same result.
    The only thing that worked was a clean install with a windows 7 64 Bit retail dvd and the key printed on the sticker of the laptop. I managed to get everything working again except one part - the webcam.
    No driver installation, bios update and re-installation worked to get this part to work.
    Did anyone of you know this problem and have a fix for me?
    Thanks in advance.
    Greetings Saphire
    P.S.: One thing shall be also important. When I look into the installed devices manager the driver for the webcam is listed as usb webcam and the manufaturer of it is Microsoft.

    Hi
    I dont think that this needs to be fixed because I dont think its hardware related issue.
    I think there is something wrong with the software on your notebook.
    I mean everything worked perfectly until virus has damage the OS. Right?
    You said this:
    >I tried to install it with the recovery partition, which did not work. After it I tried to re-built it with the dvd I burned from the recovery partition with the same result.
    I really wonder why you could not get this working using Recovery disk.
    So possibly this is the key to this issue
    On the Toshiba European driver page I could find Registry Patch v1.1 For Win 7 64bit
    Also webcam driver v 1.1.1.4 is available there
    I think the OS is responsible for your issue possibly some patches are applied or similar

  • Joystick use in a Labview VI not working after an installer is made.

    I have a program that is supposed to take input from a joystick, and output a series of RS-485 signal to control devices.  It works fine when I run it on the computer I am programming on, but when I build an installer and put it onto a computer without Labview (other than what the installer puts in), it does not take input from the joystick anymore.  It also does not seem to be correctly reporting errors related to the joystick (it should throw an error when I choose an invalid joystick index, and with only 1 joystick, it should be index 0, but for some reason, I can put any number in there, and it is not erroring, despite the fact that no joystick exists at that index after it is queried.  Is there some additional installer that I should include when building the installer?
    I am currently using Labview 8.2.
    Thanks 

    My appologies for the delay in replay, but with the holidays and all...
    Anyway, the only DLLs I see in anything that is generated, are NISysInf.dll and customResource0009.dll.  Not really sure why it has such a vague name, but that is what was there.  As for the RS-485, it is via a USB to RS-485 unit which is installed and working with other RS-485 utilizing programs, including other labview programs, and to go with it I have bundled NI-VISA.  Normally it would error if I put it on a comport or joystick that does not exist, but when I put it on a comport with a nonsensical name and joystick index 8, neither seems to complain, and they still do not work correctly with correct values.  The part that does not make sense is that it works on the computer I am writing it on correctly, just when I install it from a built installer does it not work (which makes it a pain to debug when uninstall and restarting multiple times to test an attempt to fix it.
    The other possible information that I can think of that might help was that this program may have been written in Labview 8.0.1, not the current labview 8.2 that I am using (I am editing some code somebody already wrote in our company, so I do not have all of the information about its development.  I'm still rather new to Labview, so I'm not sure how to check if such is so, and if that might be causing the errors.
    So to summarize, what would cause no errors to be thrown, when it obviously is not detecting the com port or joystick correctly, and to work only on the development computer fine and not on a fresh comptuer.
