Extensions are almost always a problem for a good quality ADSL signal - in general, the longer the wire run between the master socket and the socket the router is plugged into, the worse the problem. Other things in the house can also contribute.
Fitting an ADSL faceplate to an extension socket is pretty much a waste of time as you're applying the filtering after the problem. An ADSL faceplate works best fitted to the master as this is then filtering out the extension wiring (where the problem normally arises). If you must have the router on an extension then you need to fit a faceplate to the master then run a dedicated extension, unfiltered, to the router.
To see what benefit you'd get, I'd advise running a temporary power extension to near your master and plugging your router into the test socket (hidden inside your master presuming you have an NTE5). You should then see an immediate change to your stats if your home wiring is the problem. What you're looking for is a jump in your noise margin.

Is that all
Quote from: redbull2k14 Im getting a high amount of crc errors at the moment its like 102 in the time frame of 1 hour and 4minutes. what can i do?
What is the router reporting as your present noise margin
What is the weather like around you - thunderstorms play havoc with my CRC errors even when they are nowhere near
As a comparison
Up time 123 hours CRC Errors 74,484 average over 600 per hour and most of those occur after dark

Messing with the SNRM is not likely to help, indeed it could cause other issues. It will certainly slug your synch speed. The DLM is reasonably good at managing a line for stability, leave it to do its job. A few CRC errors are neither here nor there, especially if the speed is reasonable (please post the full stats) and the connection is stable.
