Using phone disconnects BT Infinity DSL!

Whenever someone uses the landline phone my Openreach modem DSL disconnects! It is very annoying and I believe it is also why I am getting slower speeds than before. Is there anything BT or I can do about it? I am sick and tired of this happening every single time someone picks up the phone... 
Thanks, Lewis

you need to report it as a voice line fault to BT Faults on 151
No, you need to prove the fault is not on your internal wiring or equipment in your premises before you contact BT.
Can I suggest that you locate your main socket and plug the modem and home hub into a DSL filter direct into the test point and plug your phone into the telephone socket on the filter.
Let the broadband lights all settle down and browse the web (best to a site you know you have been disconnected from previously) and then make/receive a call on your phone and see if it causes the lights on modem/hub to flash and disconnect you from the internet.
If it still disconnects you then as John says contact 151 (if your Comms Provider is BT) as there is a line fault that could cause this.
If the fault does not happen in the test socket, come back here and we maybe able to give you some more help.

    My i phone disconnects with my wired headset everytime I answer?  Anybody have ideas about what it is or what I could do about it?

    A bit of clarity- the phone call disconnects when I am using the wired headset.  I like using a wired headset so I do not wish to use a bluetooth. I taken to unplugging the headset a bit and using the aswer button and this sometimes helps.

  • Phone disconnects making facetime calls

    when making facetime calls phone disconnects before call is answered on device being called can accept

    Cellular calling doesn't yet work reliably. Any improvement may only be temporary.
    Make sure you've followed the instructions in this support article. Note that both iCloud and FaceTime on the Mac must be signed in to the same Apple ID; those are two separate steps. Also note that the Mac and the phone must be connected to the same Wi-Fi network. Ethernet won't work. Trying to pair the phone to the Mac as a Bluetooth device won't work either.
    If cellular calling still doesn't work, sign out of FaceTime and sign back in. You may have to do the same on the phone. The email address that you use as your Apple ID must be able to receive FaceTime calls.

  • Unable to select 'Use Phone for audio calls' on Cisco Jabber Client 9.6 for Windows

    Hi,
    I have recently deployed Cisco Presence Server and integrated with Call Manager 9.1.2. I have successfully deplyed 6700 users on IM & Presence. Some of the users requested for Cisco Jabber with phone control.
    I have added CFS client on the Call Manager and associated it with the same extension numbers from their desk phones. I am currently able to make audio and video calls for these specific users. I am currently using Cisco Jabber Client 9.6 for windows. I have users both daisy chained to their desk phones and who are not. Can you please confirm if it does make any difference.
    Problem Faced -
    I am not able to use to option use phone for audio calls. The phone comes down with a cross sign on it. At the same time Cisco Jabber by default uses the client and it works as expected.
    Can you please let me know if any of you guys have faced a similar issue.
    Please let me know if you need any information regading the configuration used.
    Looking forward for your valuable comments.
    Thank you.
    Regards,
    Joseph Chirayath.

    Hi Will,
    I am attaching the screen shot for the END USER on CUCM 9.X that has been configured on Cisco Jabber.
    Please do let me know if you need any further information.
    Thank you.

  • Problems setting up WVC80N TZO account using my 2701HG-T 2Wire DSL Router

    Hi!
    I have 2 WVC80N cameras and I´m using a 2701HG-T 2Wire DSL Router, they are already configured and i can see them wireless, but i tryied again and again to configure both TZO accounts and always recived the next message:
    Oops, there was an error when setting up your camera for remote access.
    The wizard cannot automatically configure your router due to an invalid or unknown password. Please check your password settings on your router and try again. In many cases, your router may still have the default password setting.
    Can somebody help me? What i need to do? Is there another way to watch them throug internet?
    Regards!
    Ed.

    That link above wont work for you, you have a WVC80N and the signup is ON THE CD, not via the website.
    This error is due to the router password not working, do you know the admin PW for the router to add/remove port forwarding rules?
    If not, call your ISP or whoever gave you the router and get the password then try the setup again

  • How can i use "phone relay" on a iPad mini over iPhone created wifi hotspot?

    How can i use "phone relay" on a iPad mini over iPhone created wifi hotspot?
    It works nicely over home wifi, but for example, i am sitting in my car, phone is in my pocket and I'm using the iPad, call comes in and i don't want to start digging for my phone.
    Is there any way?
    devices:
    iPad mini cellular (no SIM card at the moment)
    iPhone 5S
    Thanks!

    well yes, but it basically makes wifi for the other devices, it basically mimics wifi.
    as i get from your answer, it is not possible?
    it would be common sense to make it work this way also. directly from device to device. no bounce between WiFi router
    Then again, common sense is not that common these days...

  • Need suggestion whether to use ATM or MPLS in DSL implementation

    Presently i am working in ISP, and we are providing internet access via simple dialup, ISDN and IVS. and now we want to implement DSL i ve talk with few peoples regarding whether to use ATM or MPLS in DSL implementation but because they are solution providers so i think they are giving me expensive solution. as long as i know about this is,whole world is shifting from ATM to MPLS Technology. ATM implementation cost is very high. so i need suggestion from u because you also have practical exposure.

    I believe ATM is soon getting obsolete...

  • How to use Phone camera for live streaming rather than using WireCast camera in Live streaming using Azure Media Services

    Hi,
    am planning to develop a live streaming app using C# and xaml.
    I have gone through the below sample and am able to stream the live content using wireacst camera.
    Azure Media Services Live Streaming Sample
    But i want to use Phone camera to stream the live video rather using wirecast camera.
    How can i use that? How to get the published URL from the C# code, is there any API to get that?
    Anybody please help me
    Regards,
    Santhosh

    Hello,
    There are no in box components that will allow you to transmit captured video from a Windows Phone device to Azure Media Services. You will need to create you own implementation. You can do this by creating a custom Media Foundation sync that can plug into
    the MediaCapture element's pipeline. You will then need to modify the captured and compressed video to align to one of the two protocols that Azure Media services can use. At this time Azure Media services can use either Smooth Streaming or RTMP for ingestion.
    You will need to create your own packager (or find compatible packager code from a 3rd party) to package the MP4 encoded data into the necessary format.
    Here is an example of how to create a custom Media Foundation sync (please note you must write your Media Foundation components using C++ MoCOM. We do not support Media Foundation components written in managed languages):
    Real-time communication sample
    I hope this helps,

  • Why does my phone disconnect after 4 hours of call time

    why does my phone disconnect after 4 hours of call time? Is there anyway I can change this?

    You mean that you're on a single call for 4 hours continously, and then it disconnects?
    If so, contact your wireless carrier.  That's a cellular connection issue.

    I have an sony vivaz, i want to upgrade the software. i had downloaded  the upgradtion software. bUt it fails to upgrade, even it fails when i  use phone repair in pc suit.
    What should i do?

    Hello @chavanjayesh2001... I wanted to give you some tips for when you can't update the software of your phone:
    -Make sure that the Internet connection is good. If the update process is interrupted it might be due to loss of Internet connection.
    -Try using another USB cable and usb port in your computer.
    -Try using another PC.
    -Temporary disable any firewalls and or antivirus software.
    -Start your PC in “Safe mode with networking” mode. This is done by pressing F8 during PC boot. When Windows is started in safe mode, try taking the update again.

  • How is it I purchased a brand new phone less than 30 days ago and when defective I'm given a used phone and find a replacement sent slow mail?

    I opened an account with added lines with Verizon about Nov 14th. Not 30 days has passed and yesterday in the middle of using my fully charged HTC One M8 Windows phone the screen went dark. I can hear incoming service but of course the phone is useless.
    I was promised a replacement and told by the tier 2 support person last night that the replacement would be out overnight. I checked earlier and no status was available, and I checked now after waiting today for the phone, and now I see the phone was not sent overnight, and further that I will be sent a "like new" used replacement. I paid a substantial down payment and will be continuing to pay the new phone price, but now I am being given a used phone though still paying for new.
    I am really unhappy about how this less than 30 day customer who is not going to a discount carrier is getting treated. Someone credited me for the few days service I am out...but that still does not resolve the used phone issue. Is this something I need to take up with the BBB?

    Sucks, but it is in the contract you signed. Within 14 days, return the phone and get a new one, after 14 days, it is a used phone and gets replaced with a used phone. I had this happen to me, felt a bit cheated, but you know what, that phone lasted the entire rest of the contract without issues and continued to work when I passed it on to family.
    The only alternative would be to work directly with HTC, the manufacturer of the phone and try to get a new replacement. However, almost every company does exactly what Verizon does in this situation. Since Verizon is keeping to the terms of the agreement you both agreed to, the BBB will not see any problem and not have any reason to act.

  • Keeping unlimited data buying used phone confusion

    Hello, looking for a little help and clarity here if possible. I have an unlimited data plan from years ago and would like to keep it. I have been using one of the first motorola droid phones and it is just way out of date with the 3G. I understand that I can keep my data plan if I pay full price for a new phone or buy a used one from swappa, ebay, etc. I've decided to buy a used phone but I want to make sure that the phone I buy will work properly at 4G while keeping my unlimited data plan. I am mainly confused by CDMA and GSM and HSPA+ and LTE and unlocked etc. I know to buy an official Verizon phone, but when I look at the specs, they all are different. Some use CDMA, some use GSM, some use both. Then there is HSPA+ and LTE Does any of this matter? Will I be able to use any of those phones and upgrade to 4G as well, as long as they have the Verizon stamp? Or is there a specific criteria I need to be aware of in order for everything to go smoothly? I hope the questions make sense.
    A little clarity on this is much appreciated, and any other crucial info I might be missing. Just want to make sure I don't make an expensive mistake.
    Thanks so much

    Thanks for the detailed reply. I've found that I almost always have signal using Verizon, when friends standing next to me do not using other carriers. Will using a GSM/Verizon phone limit my signal service?
    Here are a couple I am looking at. Thanks for taking a look.
    The description for both of these say they are factory unlocked...
