    Strange Telephone engaged tone noise ?..

    When I am on my computer. I can hear a telephone engaged tone coming from somewhere ?..

    I have only just connected up to UTV Clicksilver broadband, which is working and my phoneline is now available when I am on broadband.

    Friends have told me that they can not get through to me on the phone, as the line is always engaged ?..

    Any idea's anyone :confused:

    Thanks.

    Yep,got the filters and they are installed. Strange how I can dial out while on broadband, but it appears people can not phone me,due to a permanent engaged tone at their end?..

    Problem solved. Someone had placed a DECT cordless phone under my desk with the handset button pressed. This created the mysterious "Telephone engaged signal" this was corrected when I pressed the button replacing the handset that was visible on the display.

    Some people, Eh. Little minds :eek:
