Re: Strange Phone Line Issue

We've had problems with the DSL  from Bellsouth for years..
even worse  if the household  has an online computer or other dsl devise
full time..
we've had to to switch to a outdoor extra deep notch type dsl filter.
place the filter at the demark box outside  then split the comm signal for
the house through that filter, 1 line for the rj-31 and house phones second
line for the dsl devices..
thats the only way we've been able to get a stable remote access to our
panels.
((using FBII  and related comm chip set devices,))

hope it helps

that early click  your hearing is the modem for the dsl devices attempting
an ID  of the voltage drop to the line..
