    BT330 earpiece volume increase

    Can anyone give me advice on how to increase the volume on the ear of a BT330? It has obviously been converted to PSTN and has also been changed from Pulse to Tone dial. I am sure it is not the conversion but any help or even better a manual would be great.

    Boost water pressure for shower

    How can fitting a booster pump increase my water pressure without running out of input flow. I understand how pressure is increased but surely the supply determines the pressure. I want to fit a shower with good to brilliant pressure I have seen the setup with an expansion tank but wondered...

    bt prehistoric line

    Good argument Simonpolly pity it bears no relevance to the problem like your 2nd quote, read the initial post. I have used plenty for neighbours, so inherently it is. Doubtful Newdawn cares what the pair numbers are but well done for repeating what has already been said with bigger spaces...

    bt prehistoric line

    Now for the cowboy answer. bare back pair 1 and pair 2. Spit on your index finger, Place the bared wires on your finger one pair at a time. One wire will slowly fizz you have the right pair when this happens. You will not feel this unless you hold it for 3 or 4 minutes. You will not get a...

    bt prehistoric line

    Hi, The orange and white go on to 2 and 5. The 3 grey are steel wires to protect the overhead cable from birds landing on it and breaking it they should be cut away to the neck of the cable. The green and black are incase you want a 2nd line or if your neighbour needs them. Note that if you...

    Vokera combi boiler pressure gauge sticking

    I have a small vokera gas compact combi boiler which does not light up every time (works 3 out of 5 times) on the timer setting. Due to having pump problems in the past I have done away with this several years ago and have a filling loop installed which works perfectly. The problem is that the...

    Why do they call a ADSL modem a modem ?

    Surely the answer is misinformation! An ADSL 'Brouter' which is exactlly what you have at home is a device that is a cross between a Bridge and a Router. It does do packet switching although is purely a bridge between your network and the DSLAM in the exchange. The packet switching is in your...

    Telephone rings, then silence but connection still there

    As Simonpollly states above your fault does sound like it is in openreaches network and if you checked at the NTE with all disconnected then there is nothing more you can do. No matter what your SP says about charges you will not be liable for charges if the fault is outwith your property...

    ck700 battery drain, alarm panel output 1.5v

    Spoke too soon. alarm went off last night after I posted above. Battery was down at 7v. I am sure that the PSU is knackered as it only outputs 1.5v anyone agree? Could I use a normal 12v transformer e.g. game charger?

    Telephone rings, then silence but connection still there

    If you took the front plate off the main socket (NTE5) when this was attempted and it still tripped (rang once) then it is a BT problem (openreach) so call your provider BT sky talk talk etc and report it. You have no need to worry about Ug or overhead faults that's up to your SP to woorry...

    Telephone rings, then silence but connection still there

    I would agree with above. Is it possible your overhead line goes through trees? The BT test only tests at a low frequency for the main socket it does not see the ringtrip fault. I would get a neighbours phone, disconnect all of yours including sky and all filters. Use your neighbours to...
