Landline issues

JOE19871 — Mon, 02 Mar 2026 12:24:03 GMT

When using the landline phones theres a warble sound you can barely hear anyone over it

I've reset my router still the warble persists ive checked my sky app it says nothing out of the ordinary and it has plenty of space so nothing interferes

Can anyone help maybe Openreach has an issue im in the CH65 area

Thank you kindly

Joe

@JOE19871 I assume your phone is plugged into your broadband Hub. Are you using a cordless phone(s)?

@JOE19871 a few things to try first:

- restart your Hub by switching it off at the plug for 30 seconds or so

- move your phone's base station as far away from the Hub as its cable allows

- try a standard corded phone, if you have one, to rule out a problem with your cordless phone

Let us know if the above makes any difference.
