280041 2004-10-11 06:16:00 All of a sudden i cant dial up to net unless i unplugg the phone from jackpnt.

Got 3 jackpnts with 2 in use. Phone is separate and so is the PC.
when trying to dial it gives error 680 and i have to unplugg the phone (Panasonic Cordless).

Same goes for the phone.
All i can hear when trying to dial is a dead air (like getting put on hold with no music)....unless i unplugg modem cable.
Also its quite funny when on net and you pickup phone...instead of getting all the squealing you hear dead air.

Any ideas what maybe wrong. It was working fine for sometime and started happening all of sudden.

Thanks

The phone may therefore have failed.

280043 2004-10-11 08:44:00 this may also be a conflict between the phones/modems in your house. I have 2 perfectly fine modems, they both work like a dream. EXCEPT when they are both plugged in at the same time. Wierd. Bletch (244)
