I'm getting terrible line noise and ADSL disconnections whenever the wind gets above a certain speed. It can cause loss of ADSL service for hours at a time. Looking at the overhead phone line as it comes down the shared driveway I can see that there are quite a few tree branches brushing against it and I assume that they're causing the problem.
Most of the time the line is clear as a bell and the ADSL connection is rock solid, so I can guarantee that if I report it through the ISP it will not be happening when Telecom test the line. In anticipation of getting the runaround from the ISP and Telecom, has anyone dealt with a similar problem before? Are Telecom obliged to trim back the trees from their line or is it the responsibility of whoever owns the trees (not sure who this is right now)?
