This is quite possibly the source of interference - could have been there with the old drops but never detected. As we all know, short hiccups may never be noticed by a user; they may just complain of 'slow connections'. Degraded performance due to errors won't cause XP to show the cable disconnected as your test did.

Your users will not notice any difference at all between 10/half and 100/full. Just because the lines are configured at that rate doesn't mean you're ever sending that much data... A G.711 VoIP connection uses less than 90K in a single direction. Throw in a little silence suppresion and compression, and you reduce the bandwidth requirements quite a bit. (Afterthought - I do want to clarify that this applies only to the phone connections - if you were to set your PBX gateway connections into the LAN to 10-half, you could experience problems if the total user traffic exceeded the total cacapcity on those segments.)
