you need to isolate the problem. So have you ...

tried using the same phones somewhere else? (take them round to a friend's house and plug them in there)

tried using a different phone in your own house

tried plugging a laptop/pc in

each of these will hopefully allow you to isolate exactly what the problem is.

Sue many times I find it easier to do away with the old lines all together if the problem is not easily identfiable and simply run new 4 conductor from the "point of demarcation" (telephone company lingo to say where their line hits your home) to where you need your telephone jacks in your home. This is relativly inexpensive and the jacks you would wire in are all color coded so you wouldn't even need to know anything about your "tip" oir "ring" wires. Good luck!
