There is a difference in the line voltage of a BT telephone line and Non BT providers. Whereas BT use 50 Volts, Non BT providers only supply 37 Volts on There Nokia transmission kit. Some modems are looking to detect the 50 V line voltage before they will work correctly. There is NO WAY that Non BT providers can alter There line voltage to match BTâ₠¬ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â‚¬Å¾Ã‚¢s as this is inherent in the make-up of the Nokia transmission kit, and cannot be adjusted for individual subscribers. They are able to make adjustments to the Modem settings though, which may counter this problem.
thanks for your input guys , does all this info mean ntl customers need changes to their sky boxes to allow for this low voltage ?
