Rick,<br><br>I'm not sure what fix was actually performed to the line. I just explained to Bell that there was a large interruption in data service when a voice call first rang through, and they sent a tech right out.<br><br>

PSTN Incoming call on real line disrupts VoIPcall over DSL
circuit<br></font><br></div></div><div style="direction: ltr;"><span class="q" id="q_10b15a6bed9d1951_1">
<div></div>I'll lean this way too. I had a DSL line from Bell Canada in
Kingston, Ontario, and an incoming call on that line to the POTS phones would
cause VoIP traffic to become completely unintelligble. The VoIP call would have
to be re-established to fix things. A quick call to Bell had a technican out to
check the lines, and put a fix in place for me. <br><br>Alex Robar<br><br>
