This is accompanied by a loud scratching noise on the telephone and what sounds like a Fax machine which we do not have.

sounds like you have a telephone plugged in which has not got a filter or has a faulty filter. this will cause broadband to be dropped every time the phone rings or is picked up.

You service provider is being kind to you - these breaks are designed to stop you getting Repetitive Strain Injury in your hands, thereby enabling you arrange tea for all the family. The sounds down the telephone are the calls for help from folks who don't have a kind service provider. Isn't life wonderful.

I always find my internet connection is much more reliable when nothing else is connected to the line. If you don't want to unplug your phones etc, make sure you have a Microfilter connected to every phone socket, even ones that don't have a computer.
I used to have really bad connection problems, just because my Sky box didn't go through a Microfilter.

Maybe you still have your 56K dial-up modem connected to your broadband line, you should unplug it.
If it isn't that then there might be a problem with your line, contact your internet service provider for help.
