Phone rings once then stops

Apologies, I have a BT phone not Virgin but I hope someone will be kind enough to help me. I have a BT land line with 4 extensions wired directly to a junction box next to the line box. The phones (all of them) ring once, then stop. If I pick up fast enough I get connected. All phones call out OK. By disconnecting I have narrowed the fault down to one line. This goes from the junction box, out through the window to another junction box (installed by BT), then through another window to the socket. I thought I had fixed t by checking all the connections and it worked OK for a day but now is back to its old tricks. The outside junction box seems to be dry inside but it has been raining alot recently. What is the likely cause (or causes) ? Grateful for any help
