The only bit of cable I own here is the 2m length of cat-5 between the 
te405P and BT's line terminating unit. And yes, I've replaced that about 
5 times now...

Thanks for your help, but again I'd like to ask: what does a yellow 
alarm actually mean? From the driver source code I can see it is set 
when the FRS0 register has bit 4 set - but that doesn't help a lot...
