    So I play a couple online games(P.C. Games) but everytime the phone rings i get disconnected from server.


    We recently had the phone lines played around with as we were getting our house done up. Just moving the phone line into a diff room and what not.

    Why do I keep getting disconnected though?

    :confused:

    are you using broadband filters on your ADSL connection and all the lines with phones on them?

    if you are then one of them may b faulty, or someone has messed up one of your cvables in the move.

    filters are the first thing to check tho.

    DSL filter needed on every piece of phone equipment, and a filter/splitter needed for the modem. If you don't have these, then that's the problem.

    When a phone ringing, or being used, disconnects the DSL, it's invariably related to the filters. Either none being used, or gone faulty.
