Dear All,
 
Will ny of you with an understanding of Broadband connectivity come to my  
rescue as neither AOL or my line provider can advise.
 
I had broadband for six months without a hitch.  Four weeks ago the  
telephone line suddenly went noisy when using the handset of the phone and I  could 
hear the modem talking despite a filter.  I exchanged the filter  twice but the 
problem persists.  Now it has become worse as I have to lift  the receiver on 
the phone until I can hear the modem make connection and then  unplug the 
handset as replacing it disconnects the broadband reception.   Where I live is 
rural and the feed to my house is still two copper wires.   However, this proved 
no problem for the first 6 months.  What changed, what  can I do, how is the 
phone interacting when it didn't before?  Any help  from the list would be much 
appreciated.
 
Frustrated beyond sodding belief,
 
Martinge

Sorry can't help, my connection has always behaved that way and my
provider won't fix it, so if you find out please let me know!

Way back in the olde days when I had dialup, I had a lot of noise 
and dropped connections. Then the phone company installed new wires 
from the telephone pole to my house and the problems went away.

Martin - how does the line sound on the phone if you disconnect the ADSL filter?

Martinge,
 
I noticed that while I was waiting for you to come to the phone today I  
could hear apparent modem style activity in the background, so has a near  
neighbour recently messed around with the phone lines?
