Broadband Data extension
I have used three broadband suppliers which all utilise BT Open Reach.
Supplier 1) BT Infinity.
Suppler 2) Sky.
Supplier 3) Vodafone current.
After moving from BT to Sky there was a speed problem Sky Engineer fitted BT Mastersocket 5c Mk4. No problems .
Then my speeds started to drop when utilising external data cable .
When the WIFI Hub is connected to the master socket and the test socket speeds are 57.4 Mbps, as soon as anything is connected to A+B ports whether the cable is 20 mm or 20Mtr the speed shows a drop of approximately 15Mbps?
Is this normal or what could cause this ?
Has anybody any ideas someone said it could be Rine and Shine but surely if that was so it would not matter if a data extension was used.
I guess just have to put up with WIFi hub in lounge as opposed to upstairs out of sight.
Any comments or advice would be appreciated.
thanks

Re: Broadband Data extension
It sounds as though the data extension wiring is either faulty or picking up interference.

Thanks for your contact.
One thing that baffles is I purchased new Cat 6 cable which showed 15mmMbps drop, but the old cable showed 24Mbps drop.
I only left the new cable lying loose outside the house !!
