Moving master socket cost? Rewiring other stuff
Hi again,
Being honest one school of thought could be that the only way to find out is to go ahead and get the job done. However I'm more inclined to think that the improvement may be minimal when weighed up against the financial cost.

If we go through the faults process, for instance if you experience an intermittent connection or significant deterioration of your speeds then we can send an engineer out who is authorised to enact whatever repair work is necessary and is likely to replace that sort of wiring if you ask nicely (and provide tea and biscuits).
Hmnn interesting, we had a bt engineer round when I was with TT (
) he took one look at the wiring, shook his head and quickly sodded off back to the cabinet and exchange :D.Funny you should mention disconnections I do seem to be getting a few over the last few days which in truth I haven't had before.
So have a quick look at your end and deceide to send an engineer to replace the master, I'll stay for another year I promise
Ben I am also worried about my speed, this is my master junction
and this is my BT speed test result, should I do anything about it, will it speed up my surfing and e-mail, I dont game or P2P

Obviously Pierre has a problem.
Ben can you fix it by putting him on a 2mb fixed profile

Quote from: Ben 2 drops in 7 days isn't really enough to warrant us sending an engineer, sorry!
Well you've got to try

Certainly looks like it.
I'd suggest you start your own thread and describe all the wiring in more detail, including posting a larger photo that clearly shows the connections.
Years ago just after I got dial up free online, I did have a noisy phone. BT came out and found the junction box on top of pole (about 15 ft from front of house) was full of crud, they change the cable from there to a junction box on front corner of house. Got an extension fitted BT, but they never changed the master junction.
The wire comes from the eves down the cavity wall and out of an air vent in the under stairs larder to the box, they fitted a socket on the bedroom extension, which I think is connected in a junction box in the loft where the wire disapears down the cavity - it is not a master box. At the same time they ran a short extension through to the hallway and a single socket wher I now have the Thompson and Samknows router.
This was at the time when BT stopped supplying phones and you could buy your own
More than happy with my speed, could probably get more but dont care
