For some reason which is very much beyond my tiny little brain, I cannot get the above mentioned telephone to work even when I hook it directly up to the wall socket. I have portable phone which works just fine from the same socket. So am I suffering from a 1D10T error? I will chase down BT on Tuesday which should be fun...NOT! Must I use the ADSL socket? None of this is very clear to me and any help no matter how sarcastic would be greatly appreciated.😕
