But, surely if it's not causing any issues with the connection, then nothing can be done?

If you have a noisy line, I don't see why you wouldn't report it as a noisy line fault. Regardless of what impact it may or may not be having on your xDSL connection, the line should be silent, or as damn near to it.

Right, bear in mind I do have to put my ear to the phone to hear this, you can't hear it from a distance, so maybe I'll wait. It does seem to be louder than previously though.

why dont you just ring up and ask them if there are any issues present to them? they can test if from their end, it would put this to bed.

Sorry, if you have a problem with me trying to investigate this then PM me, don't spoil the thread. It's a rather offensive post too.

I agree with him though.

You've identified something that's not right with you're line but you're not willingn to get it investigated, yet you're obsessing with non service affecting stats..

its offensive? in what aspect mate, im telling you the best way for it to be sorted... its no good coming here to tell us whats going on, to then not take the info we give and use it.

all you need to do is make a 5-10 min phone call to ask for your line to be tested for any errors.

and then you will know.

Well, you were implying that this thread shouldn't continue, which is slightly rude.

I'm talking to BT live chat, I've asked them to complete a GEA test.

No problems found.

What the man said.

Or the other option, there is nowt wrong with any of it at all and he just wants to geek out on stats.
