Hi;
Having done some decorating I have re-routed some telephone extensions, one into my new kitchen and the other into my new computer room. The problem I now have is that the phone does not Ring Ring it just RIIIIIINNNNNNGGGGGGGSSSSS constantly and is very annoying!!
I have a BT Master Socket (Looks quite old) with a blue capacitor and two wires in Blue and Orange connected to A & B terminals with a spare Green wire that is not connected, there is a spare connector marked E (This has never been connected).
I have two extensions which are hard wired into the spare terminal blocks of the master socket one to the kitchen which goes into a standard slave socket connected from and to terminal 2 and 5 and the other which goes to the computer room but this is wired into a (I think mercury) Phone / ADSL socket, again connected from and to terminal 2 and 5 on the master socket.
The phone in the kitchen is connected via an ADSL Filter.
When a phone is connected to the master socket it Ring Rings OK and when the Phone / ASDL socket is disconnect the kitchen phone Ring Rings OK but when the Phone / ADSL socket is connect both the kitchen and the phone in the computer room RIIIINNNGGGG constantly.
There are no other extensions on the line.
I have tried connecting the Orange / White Ring Circuit wires for both extensions but no joy.
Any help would be gratefully received.
