...or £60-ish for a new 19" ws if affordable

I can confirm that my broadband problems began in February which is when I started using the "noisy" monitor. Previously I had a HP monitor with a DVI connector, but it burnt out, so I had to replace it at short notice by borrowing the "noisy" monitor from work. Little did I know that it would cause me so much grief.

Opening the monitor and examining the capicitors is beyond my competence, so I will pass
on Burak's request, apologies for that.

However, I am planning to buy a new monitor soon (maybe next month), so hopefully the problem will be resolved then. If not, I will return! In the meantime, I offer thanks to everyone who took time out to respond to this thread: your support was appreciated

Thank you for the latest update. I am now convinced that we have got to the bottom of this issue.

Perhaps that explains the reason why your work was willing to loan you that particular monitor . . . 

Do please "drop in" when you are next passing. We try our best to be a friendly community and a happy looking tortoise is most welcome.

I bought my current 22" ws XEROX for under £60 from my local CEX shop.  They have a web presence here.

 I would have suggested wrapping the monitor, but thought it rather large and more troublesome to do !  I also considered suggesting a faraday cage although I think this would impede the view of the monitor.  It would most likely cure the problem though 

I agree with you that it's most likely the switch-mode PSU in the monitor causing the issue.
