Landline telephone dies not work after analog to fibre switch

My broadband was recently upgraded by Sky from analog to fibre. We have noticed our landline telephone is not working and there is an Amber voice light on the Sky router. Does this mean we have to buy a new landline telephone please?

Good morning,

Reboot of the router worked, left unplugged for at least a full minute, reconnected and now all 4 lights are green and a dial tone so all appears to be working as expected.

Appreciate you help, thankyou.

You shouldn't need a new phone. When was your new service activated? It can take a day or so for the phone service to catch up.

Thanks Mark39, it was activated on 3rd December. Router is showing an Amber light on the "Voice". Checked all connections and they seem OK.

Will reboot the router in the morning and see if that helps.

Thanks for the response

It shouldn't take that long. Yes, restart your Hub when it's convenient.. If it stil shows an amber 'Voice' light, it's best reported to Sky. We can ask Sky's messaging team to contact you here so that you can report it via a private online chat, if you wish.
