[OT] TriBand DSL/POTS question
by Arun K. Khan 06 Jun '06

06 Jun '06

I have a MTNL land line and TriBand DSL on the same copper pair. Since 14.00 hours today no dialtone on the telephone thus cannot make any outgoing calls but DSL is working. On the flip side call my land line number from my mobile and I get audible indicating that the exchange does not think there is any problem with my line. This happened to my line last year during the 26/July downpour but auto corrected a few days later but voice quality was poor. Complained to MTNL and they replaced the splitter subsequently restoring acceptable voice quality. So ... to eliminate the possibility of a damaged splitter, I disconnected everything and hooked up the phone instrument directly to the pair coming in from MTNL - no dial tone. Anybody experienced this before? Any suggestion what/where the problem could be? In the mean while will lodge a complaint with MTNL as well. TIA, -- Arun Khan (knura at yahoo dot com) Never call a man a fool. Borrow from him.
