We have five phone points in the house, four of these have phones
plugged in and the fifth is my computer connection.
My G4/400 OSX10.4.1 uses ethernet to a D-Link DSL-504 ADSL router
and via splitter and filter a phone link for computer fax is made to
the modem port. The fax connection is used as "send only" and set
not to receive so the modem does not respond to incoming phone
calls. All the phones have filters and the system performed
perfectly for months, that is, until recently our ancient Audioline
answerphone gave up the ghost and has been replaced by a fancy
Panasonic unit. Everything still works fine except that when the
computer is asleep an incoming phone call now wakes it up.
Has anyone else experienced anything like this? I will try the
obvious unplugging of the phone line to the modem socket on the G4,
but I would appreciate advice as to where to look for a log or
whatever that my point me to the root cause.
Thanks in advance
Severin Crisp
