Hmm 
I worked an 11 hour day yesterday so I reckon I was entitled to go home 
I think that the NID is referring to the master socket.
What bizarrely worded instructions! It simply seems to be saying to plug your router into the master socket via a filter and then plug your computer into your router. It's very confusing though.
What did the engineer do yesterday?

Well basically the main thing in short, was that both of the telephone sockets in my house was setup wrong.. I wish I knew the right words here.. you will know this, if you have two phone sockets (same number) and you use the test socket on one of them, it should disconnect the other.. well that wasnt happening here because I had two of the same main socket both with a test socket too so yeah 
He opened the socket in my room and said "whats that doing there" one of the wires was wrong also 
he sorted then that then went to his van and got a new faceplate for it, then he checked the socket downstairs and so yeah both was setup properly to work with each other etc. When using test socket, the other disconnects now!
The other thing he did just to make sure.. was he rewired everything outside my house, after that ran a quiet noise check on both sockets and i heard myself, it was pure silent. He went the exchange and did a eclipse test, called me back said its absolutely fine now.
One noter too, I told him about the BT guy saying its not a wiring fault if problem still persists in the test socket. Engineer agrees with you, the BT callboy didnt have a clue
Yeah and well thats about it.
BT = Tick!
Plusnet = Tick!
Next?

Like you know from my massive wall of texts I have been trying to explain the problem Im getting, saying my ping will begin spiking creating the game to not be smooth, jerking everywhere etc.
Well last night my mate wanted to see what exactly was happening, so I recoreded a quick video of myself playing battlefield 2 when I was spiking last night.... He now calls me the twitcher! Ha
