  • If you have the latest router and its set for VOIP calling then the phone line needs to be plugged into the voice socket, not the master socket or extensions.
Passing on the tips I have learned in over 24 years as a more than satisfied Sky customer.

As noted above, if you were 'updated' to Sky Talk using VOIP, your 'landline' is now only functional via the phone socket on the back of the Sky Broadband Hub: the phone port on a master socket faceplate, a microfilter or any extension sockets will not work for voice calls.
