If you have a BT provided ADSL, FTTC or FTTP line, then on the [[:Category:Control Pages|Control Pages]] you are able to set automatic line testing. This is in addition to the [[Line_DiagnosticsLine Diagnostics|One off Line Tests]] that can be run.
 
It is often useful to run a line test as soon as a line drops, or on a regular basis to help diagnose a fault. For example, if a line is frequently dropping then it is useful to run a line test as soon as it drops to test if it is in sync or not. If the router is keeping sync by dropping, then the fault may not lie in the phone line.
An example ADSL Status test result:
