Re: No broadband but getting dial tone

No. If you connect the extension to the data terminals rather than terminals 2&5, you will have the unfiltered signal  containing both phone and broadband at the extension. You will then need to plug in a filter to split the broadband and phone.

Re: No broadband but getting dial tone

Thanks.

Neither of 2 Openreach engineers seemed to know that. Essentially, they should have connected my extension to the data connection.

connecting extension sockets it up to the homeowner not openreach unless you are paying extra for the install

But they reconnected the extension because it was their decision to replace the master socket. They accepted responsibility because the extension was already connected.

@ossian 

Why did they replace the master socket, had you raised a fault report?

Complaint about speed, especially upload - below 0.8. So they came out checked everything, reset my profile and changed the socket. It's slightly better but not much. Engineer this morning surprised I get anything at all due to distance from cabinet.

Re: No broadband but getting dial tone

Reconnecting the extension is likely to make matters worse.
