Do not connect your router/modem to an extension socket on the phone

Thats bull****. There is FAR more copper lead between the master socket
and the exchange or node than there is to any extension socket.

True. But arguably it it isn't in such an electrically noisy environment.

Its actually in a more electrically noisy environment outside
the house with the traffic ignition noise etc. And it isnt
electrical noise that determines the broadband speed anyway.


actually it largely is...all te other broadband users on the same cable
run will produce more noise than the radio stations do in total
