If you have paired and connected the headset to your computer, then please do the following:
1. Sign in to Skype and in the TOOLS menu, select OPTIONS... 2. Under AUDIO SETTINGS, select your Bluetooth headset from the MICROPHONE, SPEAKERS and RINGING drop-down list.
Based on your problem I assume that you have DSL. When you get hooked up for DSL they send filters that you are supposed to put between EVERY phone and the jack. (Don't forget phone lines for satellite and alarm systems).
If your dsl drops every time the phone rings, there are usually 2 things that cause this.
1) A bad filter in your house. If a filter is bad or missing it can cause
the dsl to drop either when the phone rings or if someone picks up the
phone with the bad filter.
2) The other reason could be on your ISP's side. It's called a POTS splitter. You have one of these if you
have BOTH phone and DSL. It's what sort of combines the 2 together.
There are a number of problems that can occur with a bad pots splitter.
i.e. DSL works - phone totally dead, Phone works-dsl - totally dead,
disconnects, etc...
I suggest that you hook up the dsl modem by
itself. DISCONNECT ALL PHONES IN THE HOUSE. Do NOT have anything
connected at all except the dsl modem. No filters, phones, directv,
digital cable, or anything else in a phone jack. Then when you are up
and surfing, take your cell phone and call your house. Technically it
should just ring and ring. Unless you have voice mail in which case it
will go to voice mail after so many rings. Anyway, see if when the line
is ringing in your cell phone if it is dropping you off. If it DOESN'T,
then it's probably one of the filters, jacks, or wiring. If it still
disconnects, it's probably the POTS splitter with your ISP.
Good luck and if this helped please help me out and leave feedback!
is the ringer on the base or phone on? check that first.if that's ok, then plug a regular corded phone into the phone jack and see if there is dial tone.if there isn't any, try other jacks in the house. if still not working, call your phone company.

You may have a phone line connected from the modem to a wall outlet. Count the number of cables coming out of your modem - you should have only three: the power cable (connects to the wall), Cat 5 (also connects to the wall), and ethernet (running from the modem to the router).
