    So it's a terraced house that is a room with a bay window, then the front door/hall, then to the right of that is a second smaller room a few metres back from the front of the house. Two guys came to install it and I spoke to the first one and he said it couldn't go into the smaller room as...

    Got mine installed yesterday, and they refused to install it in the room where I wanted which was a bit annoying. So now I need to run a cable 20ish metres to where I want it to be. Anyone know if I'm better off running ethernet and keeping the router and modem where it is or running fibre optic...

    Best monitor/s for programming and competitive gaming

    Hi, Just wondering what the best monitor combination is for my needs. I currently use a 40" 4k samsung TV as my monitor for programming which I saw pretty heavily recommended on here a few years ago...

    Is this the BT master socket?

    I had a go at getting it off but think I might have figured it out. Both cables go to the left, and the doors to the back garden are just under 2 metres away so I assume it goes out there? There's loads of moving boxes blocking the doors and it's pitch black now so will have a look tomorrow...

    Is this the BT master socket?

    I'm not sure if it's a suspended floor, but I've just taken unscrewed it and had a look. I'm not sure where this leads to or how to find our really.

    Is this the BT master socket?

    The internet has been activated now and works fine. Still no sign of any other socket. What are my options for moving it somewhere more sensible? Should I unscrew it and try and see where the wire is going?

    Is this the BT master socket?

    Gave that a go and it said welcome to BT so good to know it's not Virgin.

    Is this the BT master socket?

    The number doesn't match the one I see on my Zen profile (it has the new address) so I assume it's the previous phone number. The broadband activates on Monday so hopefully should all be fine then. That makes sense, I'm not exactly sure why the previous owner wanted it in the middle other the...

    Is this the BT master socket?

    I tried tracing what seemed to be the wire, it went to a box that has been ripped off and from there I couldn't really tell. I also plugged a landline phone into the socket and it worked and let me make calls so I assume this is good news and that the internet will be fine once it's switched...

    Is this the BT master socket?

    What actually does it mean to be a master socket? As in what is this socket actually used for? Can I plug the router into it and expect it to work (one the broadband is activated)?

    Is this the BT master socket?

    I'm with Zen and when I spoke to them last week to move the broadband they checked and said there was a phone line there. It's due to be activated on Monday. I've plugged the router in today and get this page I've done some googling but not sure if this is a good or bad sign. I had a brief go...

    Is this the BT master socket?

    It's a ground floor flat so I assume it must be here somewhere. The floor that it is currently in the middle of was a new extension built by the previous owners. We're not moving in properly til this evening but I was there this morning and have again searched from top to bottom and cannot find...

    Is this the BT master socket?

    If that's an extension box would that imply there is the whatever it is extending from somewhere else? And is it just a case of unplugging the extension from it and then I can use it. Also not sure how the phone line gets to the house, I will check tomorrow. Thanks!

    Is this the BT master socket?

    Hi, I've just completed on a house today and am due to move in tomorrow. I spent ages looking for the BT master socket before realising it's literally in the floor in the middle of a 7m x 7m living room/kitchen. I cannot for the life of me find any other socket so assume this is the only...

    Mini-Review: Samsung 40KU6400 as a monitor

    Is the UE40MU6120 also ok to use as a monitor? Basically does it have the 4:4:4 chroma subsampling? I can't really tell what the difference between 6120 and 6400 is, besides the price.
