I recently had SKY+ installed and the engineer installed an extension cable from my Sky+ box to my phone with a T connector, all was fine. After a few weeks suddenly I had the same as you. Found it to be the extension cable between the box and phone is faulty - Unplugged it and all was OK, waiting on Sky writing to me now as I'm not connected

So my suggestion - Unplug all your phones etc. Then plug one in to see if it works in each socket you have. If you cannot get it working try another phone in all sockets. If after this still no joy then report it back to NTL and insist an engineer visits you
