- Help! My supra v.32bis modem, which is billed as handling line noise
- fairly well, drops the carrier every time my other line rings. I have
- 5 two line phones hooked up throughout my house on sockets I've wired
- for two lines. When I remove all of the phones, presto!, carrier is
- not dropped when the other line rings. I have tried each phone
- individually and they all seem to cause line noise on the other line
- (line2) when line1 rings. These phones are essential and I was
- wondering if there was some way to suppress this overlapping effect.
-
- BTW: would one of those 'anti evesdropping' radio shack gizmos
- eliminate ringing from other phones too?
-
- I'm a desperate man (who doesn't want to install a 3rd line),
