Hi @Donnaglase,

 

Welcome to TPG Community!

 

We were able to locate your account and have run some remote test.

 

We've seen that the home phone status is active and registered, which means that the service should be working.

 

Is your handset connected to the Phone 1 port of the modem? Have you tried to connect it to the Phone 2 port if it's going to work? Have you tried to use a different handset as well?

 

Sorry for the bombs of questions as we need to analyze it further.

 

Kind regards,

BasilDV

Thank you for your response Basil.  Yes I’ve changed the handset and also tried the different ports but still no dial tone and when I phone the number is does not ring.

Thank you @Donnaglase.

 

I've made some adjustments in your NBN service and the connection from your modem will be refreshed.

 

The home phone should work after 15 to 30 minutes. Please reconnect the handset to the phone 1 port and check if the dial tone is back.

 

Keep us posted on what will happen.

 

Kind regards,

BasilDV

The landline stopped working two days ago.  How can this be fixed?
