Broadband error code 680
Error 680 - No dial
tone
No dial tone: There are many possible causes of a No Dial Tone
Error.
Possible solution / fix for error 680
Error 680 usually means
there is a problem receiving the Broadband signal at your modem.
Error
680 (no dial tone) has a great many potential causes. The best way to resolve
Error 680 is to work logically to rule out each potential cause. The first
consideration is to know if the broadband connection is actually live.
Installing modem and modem software can result in Error 680 if the 'go-live'
date has yet to be reached. The next 'fault find' is to ensure that the modem
is connected to the telephone master socket, whilst ensuring that all extension
cables, phone splitters and all other devices have been removed. Disconnect
faxes, alarms and Sky TV (if connected) and once removed, attempt a broadband
connection direct via the telephone master socket (ensuring that a broadband
microfilter is being used. If Error 680 persists, try using a replacement
microfilter (sometimes a cause of error 680). The next thing to consider with
Error 680 is electrical interference from cordless / digital phones and any
other potential sources of electrical energy. Having ruled out all of these
potential causes, one remaining consideration would be to update the modem
drivers, which in most cases can be obtained from the manufacturers
website.
If after these steps, Error 680 persists, technical support
would be the next course of action.
