The cause is the touchphone in your house.

The remedy is to take it back to Telstra (assuming it is a rental one) and
ask for it to be changed to a later model one that doesn't cause the
problem.
There is no charge for this change-over.

The early touchphones (flat membrane key-pads and raised mustard-coloured
keys models) had a problem with modems and the power when recharging the
memory. The later models (raised grey key-pads) fixed this problem.
