Hi, the only thing I can suggest is change the Filter at the socket, I had the very same problem and thought it couldn't be the filter because its only a few months old but that what it was. I changed it and had no more problems.
Sorry cant help much more, if that doesn't cure it and you have eliminated everything else by connecting direct to the main BT socket behind face plate , either some body may be of help on the forum or try the section within My account area, there is a Broadband Fault Checker there. Either way you could raise a ticket, I have found the Tech Dept very quick in answering.
regards

Hi there,
I'd definitely give your old USB modem a shot. If the problems stop, it's the Voyager causing the fault, but otherwise it's probably a line fault.

Hi, Would the Broadband Fault checker on the Member Centre show what the Fault may be, I've never used it to date so I don't know what it actually checks ? If the Router is faulty and you have had it a short time I'm sure someone would advise if you could get a replacement. Good luck with it anyway.
