[UK-CONTEST] Bit off topic - but may be interesting.

[Peter Bowyer]

There's a splitter at the far end of your phone line exactly like the
one you have hanging out of your master socket. One side of the
splitter goes to the ADSL equipment, the other to the PSTN switch
where the dialtone comes from. There's a fault on the PSTN tie pair.
