@MADAL have look,at your broadband Hub.

 

If one of the lights on the front panel is labelled 'Voice' and it's lit, your phone needs to be plugged into the phone socket at the back of your Hub. It won't work if it's plugged into the wall socket.

If your broadband router has a phone light on it that is lit then the phone connection needs to be plugged into the back of it.
