If you haven't done so already I would try two very cheap things in the
process of elimination.
First I would try a different cable from wall to modem, and second if that
did no good I would buy a new phone jack plate/connecter for the wall
(around five bucks). Also, call the phone company and have them do a check
for noise on the line.

fine, but mostly when I try to connect I the following:

the telephone jack and trying again it will then connect, but sometimes I
have to do this a few times to get it to work.
