I need someone to fix what's wrong with the house's phone wiring so the phone jacks around the house work. Right now, none of them do. Re: No dial tone - no phone service Already done, Jonathan. Thank you for your help. One other thing: I realized that the only thing that changed in our telephone wiring is the installation of the VoIP telephone modem. If the modem isn't at fault, it must be the wire that connects it to the rest of the house's phone wiring. I looked at that connection and it looks pretty jury-rigged to me. There could be a bad connection there. So, I plugged our wireless phone's base station directly in to the VoIP modem so that the slave wireless units could work - and they do. At least we have phone service until this is corrected. So, again, thanks for your help. Re: No dial tone - no phone service I plugged a landline directly into modem port 1 and DID get a dial tone. I guess that means the wiring in my house is faulty. I still need a technician to find and fix the problem. What else can I do? No dial tone - no phone service The phone line in my house is completely dead. I get no dial tone. On my wireless phones it says "Line in use" even though it isn't and all the phones are firmly hung up. I've un plugged the wireless phone and plugged in an old fashioned landline. It is completely dead, too. Nothing works. The new VoIP modem appears to be working, according to the lights on it, but nothing I do to it makes any difference. It's dangerous to be completely without a phone. I can't call for service. What can I do?
