SOURCE: telephone connection problem with DSL
unplug everthing from all jacks in the house. call your # a couple of times. if the line rings, plug everything in 1 at a time, but call again after each hook up. if the line goes dead or is busy, that phone you just plugged in is the problem. [ a short in the phone, computer, answer machine, or any piece of equipment plugged into the phone line.] if the line is busy when everything is unplugged, call your phone company. there maybe a problem with your inside wire.there also maybe a box [called a nid] inside your basment/garage or on the side of your house, where you can plug your phone directly in, bypassing all the jacks in your house
hope this helps.

SOURCE: no dial tone and "line in use " message
Try the simple things first. Try a different phone. In my case, I had the phone company check - outside was fine. After two hours my phone worked. I figured out what happened in my case. Both phones were dead (battery). I think one died with the phone off the hook. once the phones were fully charged, the phone worked.
I cannot hear a dial tone.
The telephone line cord is connected to the [EXT] jack on the unit. Connect to the [LINE] jack (page 21).
L If you use a splitter/coupler to connect the unit, remove the splitter/coupler and connect the unit to the wall jack directly. If the unit operates properly, check the splitter/coupler.
L Disconnect the unit from the telephone line and connect a known working telephone. If the working telephone operates properly, contact our service personnel to have the unit repaired. If the
working telephone does not operate properly, contact your telephone company.
L The power cord or telephone line cord is not connected. Check the connections.
L If you connected the unit through a computer modem, connect the unit directly to a telephone line jack.
I cannot make calls. L The dialing mode setting may be wrong. Change the setting (feature #120 on page 22).
The unit does not ring. L The ringer volume is turned OFF. Adjust it (page 23).
Hope this is helpful. ;)
