ok, all ring wires in house removed! phone rings. adsl on.
the first time i turned my router on i got a sync rate of 4600 - so not much change, however this is with the extension splitter plugged into the phone socket first.
when i changed it round to how i usually have it - filter in phone socket first, then splitter into filter with then home phone and sky in the splitter, i now have a sync rate of 5500.
so the ring wire has definatly made a difference - HOWEVER, it all depends if it hangs on to this sync rate fo rlong enough - it dropped yesterday when placed in the test socket - it was 5790, then it dropped to 5200. so time will tell i guess, but iv done everything i should have.
with me disconnecting and reconnecting so much today, is this ok or should i leave router off for a few hours then allow a fresh resync?
and finally, is my set up correct and optimized - i.e. how my filter/splitter is and the way round it is? or do i need 2 filters from the splitter - one for home phone and adsl, and another filter for sky?
thanks
