I already swapped out the phone and the problem stays on the extension. I checked to see if there was anything near the phone that could be causing interference but there is nothing out of normal.

But when you switch it to another port, I'd assign it a new number rather than use station swap. I've seen data corruption move along with those swaps. Then, if that fixes it, you could try the swap code. - Dave S. - You can never appease your ideologue opponents.

Since you already tried another phone, that's obviously not the problem. It may be bad wiring or a port issue like Derrick said. "I thought I was wrong once, but I was mistaken"
