No dialing tone when using ANY broadband filters

[slyder]

Hi,

If I plug the phone into the BT test socket, I get a dial tone.

If I plug a micro filter into the test socket, and the phone into that, no dial tone.

I have tried 6 different micro filters, from 3 different manufacturers, including the sky supplied ones.

Any ideas!

Used to work when I was on ukonline, also on plusnet, this seems to be since I have migrated to Sky LLU broadband. Also signed up for sky talk, don't know if these changes could be responsible?

Try another phone. Only suggestion I can come up with, otherwise it would perhaps have to be some sort of line fault?

Thanks,

I have tried 4 different phones, with the same result.
Could they have mixed the wiring up in the exchange when putting me on llu?

Does your broadband work OK? And is the broadband router connected when your are trying the phones for dial tone?

First remove the router and try filter + phone only. If the problem is still there it has to be a line fault I guess, but it is strange that it works with no filter
