My uncles house: Line comes in upstairs, newish Nte5c/Mk4 fitted there, 2 voice extensions run from that. He just bought bb and the extension downstairs wont run the bb (understood as hes trying to run it off an old style extension with a plug in filter).

However not wanting to break the law !! I will go down the route you have described as theoretically the old BT NTE5 will still act as a junction box anyway? An extensive guide to how you can power your broadband router in the event of a power outage, as well as other tips for keeping things running during a power cut.Call to plusnet, openreach turned up and fixed a bad copper joint + faceplate change to the NTE5C + Mk4. You could do either, but I’d be inclined to put them onto the “exchange-side” A and B, that is, on the non-detatchable bit. Then they are out of sight, and out of “harm’s way” Get their tea/coffee preference and specification correct, and buy premium biscuits. Make sure they have room to get at everything. You may get a kindly one who will fit one. On the other hand, they should fit one as a test point to their network anyway. The front of the NTE5C MK2includes subtle curves to improve the overall aesthetics but external dimensions remain similar to theprevious NTE5A. No. The “A” and “B” refer to the 568A and 568B protocols of cable termination for these modules. There is a difference in where the oranges and greens go under each protocol. This is abbreviated to “A” and “B” on the module pins labelling.

How to Install a BT Openreach NTE5C master socket on new

It actually took quite some effort to break the old-style punch-down connectors of a good-quality NTE5. The new wire termination points may be tool-less, but once you’ve broken one (and it won’t be hard), you can throw the whole unit away. Both ideas sound fine. I frequently deal with around 30 or more cat 5/6 cables running on cable trays in office environments with no problems. The A and B on the front are a filtered ADSL/VDSL signal. Add another filter downstream of these and the signal will disappear. Thanks Rob. I’ve been told the max speed I can get on my line is 19mb down and 1.5mb up. (been told will never get fibre as on EO Line)

Note: Even though the extension wiring is now in the main body of the NTE5c, it will remain unconnected from the phone line until the lower half face-plate is installed.
