Phone Line crackling & dropouts. Need Line Test.

When someone rings me & they are talking the line is crackling loudly. This happens on & off. 

Sometimes the call disconnects for no reason. The disconnections is a new thing.

This is not the first time I've had problems with the phone line.

Isolating does nothing. 

I also think I need a new phone socket. I still have the old wide phone socket.

 

Internet is working fine.

Hi @chooky68,

 

We're able to perform line test to the service it shows no line fault that could affect the service however, we noticed that the modem/router has been connected to our network for 3weeks 3d 17h 34m try to reboot the modem/router for 3-5mins. If the issue still persist, send me your best contact number and preferred time so we can arrange our Technicians to contact you for real-time test and investigation.
