well....my missus hit the BT master socket hoovering yesterday and it didn't work after that.
I had a double adapter in the BT master socket connecting to
(a) a phone line, then filter, then cable to wireless router (as its someway away)
(b) a phone line, then filter, then phone.
It's worked ok like that for years.

So yesterday, since it was hit, I replaced the double adapter and have had the problem since then.

To make it simple, I have now placed just 1 ADS filter on the BT socket and plugged the router in one side and the phone line in the other.
Result is that it works with the phone/or broadband but not both.
Can't think what it can be. The BT has only 2 wires connected to it on A and B terminals so it's not that.
