DMN Posted January 31, 2006 CID Share Posted January 31, 2006 Hey Tim, for your second question about static you will have to ask your phone company to test it for you, they usually only test for voice grade as opposed to data grade though ask them though.

cholla Posted February 1, 2006 CID Share Posted February 1, 2006 t1wireless:One test for static just dial 1 & listen if your line sounds clear then the static isn't bad.Do you hear any cross talk(from other peoples lines)?Its best to use a hardwired phone for this sometimes remote or portable phones pick up cross talk through their antenna & you may be hearing a neighbor this way. I haven't tried this but I've seen it suggested that you complain to your phone company that you hear static(even when you don't) & sometimes they switch you to a different loop.Maybe even check their line to your house.

boywonder Posted February 1, 2006 CID Share Posted February 1, 2006 t1wireless, Did you call your telco and ask if your exchange is ISDN compatible? Another thing how far are you away from the CO?
