Thanks John I understand what is happening I don't need a lecture maybe just some sympathy lol
I wasn't giving a lecture I was simply responding to your post.
I'm not a mind reader and I have absolutely no knowledge of your knowledge of how the network is laid out or how xDSL works.
What I really want to happen is for OpenReach to turn around a few pairs that were feeding the old cabinet and put them on the new FTTC cabinet 500m away from my house but in the wrong direction. but I just had a generic response from them even though numerous engineers have said it would be a good idea .....
Every engineer you ever meet may think it's a good idea.
Engineers aren't trained on the inner workings of xDSL and what causes crosstalk and aren't always told why things like cabinet swaps aren't allowed.
They are trained to do their job. How to keep the line within spec. Training them on all of the above would be a huge expense for very little benefit.
Many people think it's as simple as connecting a cable, or pulling through a new cable between cabinets.
I was trying to be helpful and explaining that what you want isn't possible without a huge amount of work and expense.
There is no reason for a private company to put an infill cabinet for the few houses that I am part off it is not profitable for their shareholders.
That's why I specifically mentioned BDUK funding.
I am here to figure out what the interference is on my line......
Which I and others were attempting to help with.
You were the 1 who mentioned changing cabinets like it was some magic quick fix.
I was simply responding to your comment in an attempt to be helpful and explain that what you want isn't as easy as you may think.
Good luck with the interference issues.
I shall leave this for others to try help you.
