I'm afraid that won't quite do it, old chap. Y'see, the good ones can conjure up more by rote. I'm afraid you're buggered, but what the hell, you're probably a fine challenge for Milady.

I am having trouble with my ADSL, there is a fault on my line and the crackling is so bad I cannot receive phone calls and the net connection is therefore very intermittent.

Of course, having reported it to BT on Friday, they tried to convince me it is my private internal house wiring, but when I said I'd disconnected that and looked across their incoming pair in isolation with a 600 ohm DC isolated transformer and the oscilloscope showed the noise, the girly had an "engineer" call back.

He tried the same, but finally agreed it may well be the street cabinet to house line as they can only analyse up to the cabinet

The first appointment is Wednesday 13:00 to 18:00. . . . . . .
A pain in the arse, I know. You've done the right diagnostics; the trouble is either in the main cable pair from the central office to the remote terminal ('street cabinet') or in the cable pair from the latter to your house. It sounds like an intermittent ground to me. Can you isolate and check for that first? It also could be something as simple as some telephone dink pulling your connection in error and repunching the wires crossed. Trust me, it happens. :

Keep us posted old man, and our regards to Al and the lads. Glad to hear Rory is keeping the Old Guy on his toes...

If you want any Canadian maple leaves, you'd better speak up now before they're all gone....
