Request: Landline Corded Telephone & connecting cable! (Willingdon BN20) Withdrawn WANTED, please! Landline corded telephone with keypad and coiled cord & the connecting cable. My one has probably died, although it is rather a coincidence that this happened just as Zen (my provider) switched my connection from the copper cable network to the fibre optics network. My landline telephone is completely dead; NO dialling tone, in spite of being correctly connected to the dongle that plugs in to the "new" router Zen sent me, which is plugged in to the FON port in the router.
