why do I loose internet connectivity (DSL) every time my phone rings?

Question

I have a DSL router connected to a Wireless hub with 5-ports available to connect to our computers. Our phone is a 5.8 Ghz phone...Thanks!

I have phone/dsl splitters connected to every phone. The DSL router connects to the wireless router which I hard wired a couple PCs from the router. Thanks for some of your quick answers, I will contact the DSL provider.

Answer 1

Sounds like a bad setup of the DSL connection contact the phone company provider and advise them of what is going on

Answer 2

Did you connect the ADSL filters to every phone in your home? The filters should have come with the DSL modem.

Answer 3

you should have got a device with your internet modem / router which splits the phone connection , one connection is for the phone the other for the modem . if you are not using this that may be the problem , for example when people are on the phone they can hear the internet buzzing in the background .

Answer 4

Please don't take offense to this because I certainly don't mean to be offensive, but I've got to say that when I read, "Why do I lose internet connectivity (DSL) every time my phone rings?", for some reason, I busted out in hysterical laughter. [I really must need a life.]

Thanks for makin' me smile. :)

P.S.
Sorry I couldn't answer your question.

Answer 5

in case you're utilising a cordless telephone there's a conflict alongside with your wifi or a neighbours wifi connection would be interfering with yours. in case you have a cordless telephone attempt changing the channel, if not substitute the Chanel on the router, attempt shifting the antennae, or the router itself.

Answer 6

make sure each phone socket has an adsl filter pluged into it. (including any sky box's etc)
