don't connect to an extension lead connect to the master socket
adsl filter in front of every phone
don't let the modem cable trail over your power cable
never ever line share, if there are not enough telegraph poles in your street ask BT to put a new one in (prefebly not infornt of your house :P)

What would you say is the maximun cable run you should have from modem or router to the master socket to benefit from the direct connection? Do you mean the test socket?

Although Ethernet is not subject to degrading to the extent of phone cable, is there a limit after which you would not go?
Quote from: fceluk ... ethernet can stand much longer runs without seriously degrading the signal.

Quote from: BLINDPEW My sync speed is 7616 my broadband speed shows has 6500 on my connections page but I can only get a max speed of 3500.
What does a speedtest here tell you? It's the IP Profile that I'm interested in.
Quote Any help or advice would be welcome to increasing the speed.
Check to see if the VPs at your exchange are contended.
It's also worth you reviewing your MTU/RWIN settings.

IP profile for your line is - 6500 kbps
DSL connection rate: 448 kbps(UP-STREAM) 7616 kbps(DOWN-STREAM)
Actual IP throughput achieved during the test was - 3618 kbps
May I also add that my router is connected into the master socket via a filter and is approx 1 foot away from the master socket. I also get the same speedtest results plugged into the test socket.

What about your exchange congestion and MTU/RWIN settings?

Also, how is it you're establishing your download speed? Using an online speedtester?

What model of modem/router do you use and how do your PC and laptop connect to it? What are your line stats (sync speeds, noise margins and attenuations - downstream and upstream)?
My feeling is that diagnosing speed related problems on the XP laptop is less of a black art than on Vista. Is the router MTU compatible with the MTU on the laptop?
Could you run a tweaktest using the laptop at DSLreports and post the results URL you'll be given (in small letters near the bottom of the page)? The graphs in the more-details section of that sometimes give clues to help understand what goes on during data transfer.
