Re: BT problem - one for Mr D probably.

["Tracey Gardner" <tracey.gardner@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Keith commented on a similar case back in 2005

http://www.automatedhome.co.uk/vbulletin/archive/index.php/t-387.html

down near the bottom of the page.

He said that crossed wires tend to lead to phones ringing constantly
whenever the handset is on the hook and the line being permanently engaged.

and that the phones ringing constantly when called sounds like one of the
wires is shorted to earth somewhere.
