Hi @JannyJ
Welcome to the community
Sorry to hear you're having issues with your landline at the moment.
Can you confirm if you're phoneline is plugged into the main master socket, an extension or into the router?
How many pieces of equipment are connected to the phone line?
There are a few troubleshooting checks I will need you to perform to see if they are successful in resolving the issue. Can you:
Let me know if any of these checks work at all, or if anything changes with the dial tone.

Hi thanx for ansa. it’s plugged into the hub, nothing else is plugged in. I don’t have another phone.

Thank you for confirming this @JannyJ
Has your landline always been connected to the hub and worked previously with this set up? You would not need to pay any mind to the home phone switch over as this is for customers that are still connected into the older cooper lines.
What issues are you experiencing with the landline at this time?
Do you have a dial tone at all or is it just only incoming/outgoing calls affected?

It worked before but seems to have stopped working properly when I updated the hub to the 360, I have a dial tone but when I call my mobile it calls for a few seconds and then goes off, it’s the same when I call the home phone.

Thanks for that info @JannyJ
The 360 is a set top box which provides the TV service rather than the router or hub that provides the broadband service.
Can you please try pin hole resetting your router/hub for me to see if this resolves the issue. Please can you try a 60 second pin hole reset on the router. This will revert any customisations back to factory settings and full update the router with firmware/software updates. Please do not reboot the router whilst it is completing the pin hole request.

Hi I can’t do it at the moment but I’ll try tomorrow when kids aren’t online and let you know. Thank you

Btw when u say 60 seconds do you mean hold a pin in the reset hole for 60 seconds? Or just press it and wait 60 seconds?
on 10-02-2023 19:47
No problem @JannyJ
At your next available opportunity please try the pin hole reset and let us know if this has resolved the issue.
You will need to hold for 60seconds and then release then wait for the router to fully reboot, this can take up to 10 minutes and you might find that the router comes on and then power cycles/reboots again straight after - this is normal.
Please let us know if you are having any further issues or have any questions at all. We'll be here to help on the community forums if needed :).

Hi Carley
I reset the hub this morning and the phone seems to be working, the connect app is now working too yesterday it didn’t find anything connected to the hub, so thank you for that.
I have another problem with the sky go app, when I try to record anything it says “Recording is not possible due to channel rights restrictions.”
I have had this problem since upgrading too. I was told to plug my other tv box in as I don’t use it, it didn’t update to 360 and neither of the remotes work it just freezes. Do you have any idea what I can do please?
Thanx Jan
