Line cord error - tried different phones and also plugging phone line into router - please help

Hi, as per title my landline has stopped working and get a line cord error. Initially I thought the home phone had broke, so brought a replacement but that doesn’t work either.

I then did some research online and it was suggested the landline needs to be plugged directly into the Virgin router rather than wall socket - so brought an RJ11 adapter, but problem still persists.

I did report issue with Virgin media 3 days ago, but not heard back, and quite frankly the support teams seemed more interested in getting me to renew my contract, rather than resolving issue :o(

      Hello Mark_99,

      Welcome to the Community and thanks for taking the time to post here on the forums. I’m sorry to hear of the issues that you’re having with your landline at the moment and also that the team haven't helped to resolve this for you so far. I'd be happy to take a further look into this for you however I would need to confirm a few details via private message, please look out for my message and we can get started.

      Kind Regards,

    Unless you have been instructed to move from a telephone wall socket to the VM Hub, the problem reads like a fault with the telephone line to your wall socket.
