Oh and I suspect I'll end up moving the master socket myself so what seems to be the best/available VDSL masters - and source to purchase?
By "moving" I mean I'll remove the 15m of external wiring OR put in when I had ADSL in first (USB frog/slug/whatever).
He basically used 2 pair cable to run the master round the back of the house and then take the spare pair to feed what used to be the master - no idea whether he wired the ADSL v1.0 socket right or not as I've never looked, can't have done a bad job even if he got it the wrong side of the filter. External cable entry point (250mm above DPC) is where he crimped the cable, so provided he didn't cut the cable too short I shouldn't have any problems - I'll be taking a look at that conduit anyway as the drive is getting redone.
Naughty I know and I'd rather get one of the local OR boys to do it but how the hell do you do that other than having a quiet word/cash in hand?
Sky won't understand/be capable of dealing with it, BT Retail (according to next-door) can't move a master socket even though they did it 8 years ago and these people have been with BT Retail for that time. Lunacy on wheels.
Problem seems to me (from a very limited viewpoint) is that OR can't guarantee the "engineer" will be qualified to move a master socket. Data extension kit - yeah no problems, but I'm looking to remove wiring, not add to it.
Best make sure the lads doing the drive don't bugger things up
